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
purposeThe aim of this study was to identify the correlations of IFN-γ-inducible protein-10 (IP-10) with the risk of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and the efficacy of interferon therapy in Asians.
methodSerum IP-10 levels were assayed using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in both CHB and control group. CHB group received interferon-α2b treatment to compare the pre-treatment and post-treatment serum IP-10 levels. Relevant studies met predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled into further meta-analysis. Stata 12.0 software was applied for data analysis.
resultOur case-control study demonstrated that CHB group had evaluated serum IP-10 levels compared with control group (285.7 ± 41.6 pg/mL vs. 79.1 ± 33.8 pg/mL, t = 21.85, P < 0.001. After treatment for 12 weeks, CHB group had remarkably decreased post-treatment serum IP-10 levels than pre-treatment (78.5 ± 20.4 pg/mL vs. 285.7 ± 41.6 pg/mL, t = 33.76, P < 0.001). No significance was observed on post-treatment serum IP-10 levels between CHB and control group (78.5 ± 20.4 pg/mL vs. 78.1 ± 33.8 pg/mL, t = 0.07, P = 0.947). Meta-analysis results demonstrated that serum IP-10 levels in CHB group were obviously higher than healthy controls (SMD = 2.21, 95% CI = 1.55~2.87, P < 0.001). A subgroup based on the HBeAg states revealed that serum IP-10 levels in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative CHB patients were notably higher than healthy controls (HBeAg-positive: SMD = 2.00, 95% CI = 1.13-2.87, P < 0.001; HBeAg-negative: SMD = 1.34, 95% CI = 0.97-1.72, P < 0.001).
conclusionSerum IP-10 may be correlated with the risk of CHB and the efficiency of interferon therapy, thus IP-10 may be a good biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of CHB.
