Effect of HIV on liver fibrosis among HCV-infected African Americans.
Article in Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Degree of liver fibrosis largely determines treatment urgency for hepatitis C virus (HCV). This retrospective study examined fibrosis stages and predictive factors in African Americans with HCV monoinfection and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/HCV coinfection. Nearly 50% of patients had early-stage fibrosis in the study, despite the long duration of infection in many patients. HIV was associated with the early fibrosis group. These results indicate that a large proportion of patients with HCV infection, including those with HIV, could possibly await more-effective and better-tolerated treatment.
