1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Data on transmission of HCV infection from mother to infant in India are limited. Between July 2006 to June 2007, women attending our hospital in the third trimester of pregnancy were screened for anti-HCV. Those testing positive for anti-HCV were tested for HCV RNA. Infants of mothers with HCV infection were followed for up to 24 months. Eight of 488 pregnant women (1.6%) tested positive for anti-HCV; of these, seven had detectable HCV RNA. Two of 7 (29%) children born to HCV-infected mothers had persistently positive HCV RNA, indicating perinatal transmission; one additional child had transient HCV positivity. Passive transfer of HCV antibodies was observed in five babies. HCV infection was detected in 1.4% of pregnant women, and perinatal transmission of HCV to newborns was detected in 29% of such cases.
