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

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a well known cause of chronic liver disease in adults, but the burden of HCV in pregnant women and children is underappreciated. The leading route of HCV acquisition in children is vertical transmission. This review will discuss previous studies on the impact of HCV on pregnancy, risk factors for perinatal transmission, HCV transmission rates from mother to infant, what influence the virus has on the exposed or infected infant, and those areas where additional studies are required to advance our understanding of HCV pathogenesis during pregnancy. The rapid expansion of HCV treatment regimens free of interferon and ribavirin will expand future therapeutic opportunities for pregnant women and infected infants.
