Effects of the Treg/Th17 cell balance and their associated cytokines in patients with hepatitis B infection.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The extent to which T-cell-mediated immunity is impaired in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains controversial. In addition, the role of T regulatory (Treg) and T helper 17 (Th17) cells and their associated cytokines in immunity is not clear. In the present study, peripheral blood samples were collected from 44 patients with chronic hepatitis B virus, 14 asymptomatic hepatitis B carriers, 19 patients with liver cirrhosis and 20 healthy individuals. Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentages of T cell subsets in the samples, including CD3
