Perinatal management of hepatitis B virus: Clinical implementation of updated Australasian management guidelines.
Article in Obstetric medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 evaluate the implementation of the 2013 Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
methodsRetrospective cohort study of the clinical management and obstetric outcomes among hepatitis B virus-positive women in a single tertiary maternity hospital. Women with viral load >200,000 IU/ml were referred to a specialised clinic for consideration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate therapy to reduce mother to child transmission.
resultsA total of 11,496 women gave birth during the study period, of which 101 (0.9%) women were hepatitis B virus positive. Viral load was measured in 99 (98%) of 101 hepatitis B virus-positive women; 30 (30%) had a viral load >200,000 IU/ml. Twenty-six women accepted tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; of these, 23 had a successful virological response (viral load <200,000 IU/ml before delivery).
conclusionsAdherence to updated management guidelines and patient acceptance of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in our Australian population were high when provided in the context of a dedicated perinatal service.
