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

objectiveTo investigate the prognostic factors for acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) after the withdrawal of nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) for the antiviral treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB).

methodsThe clinical data of 67 hospitalized patients with ACLF after withdrawal of NAs for the antiviral treatment of CHB were analyzed retrospectively.

resultsThe HBeAg status before initial treatment and after recurrence, course of the antiviral treatment, duration from the withdrawal of NAs to recurrence, and type of NAs before and after withdrawal were not associated with the prognosis of ACLF. The Cox univariate regression analysis showed that serum bilirubin, international normalization ratio, serum creatinine, model of end-stage of liver disease (MELD) score, hepatic encephalopathy, and concurrent infection were associated with the 12-week death. The Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that MELD score and hepatic encephalopathy were independent predictors for 12-week death. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the MELD score to predict 12-week death was 0.906, with an optimal cutoff value of 32, a sensitivity of 82.9%, a specificity of 88.5%, a positive predictive value of 91.9%, and a negative predictive value of 76.7%.

conclusionMELD score and hepatic encephalopathy are closely associated with the prognosis of patients with ACLF after withdrawal of NAs for the antiviral treatment of CHB.
