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 B virus (HBV) reactivation occasionally occurs long after immunosuppressive therapy. The characteristics of late HBV reactivation remain unclear. We herein present a case of HBV reactivation in a patient with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) more than 3 years after rituximab-containing chemotherapy for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Increased transaminase levels, which were induced by NASH, were observed after chemotherapy and were alleviated with statin treatment. HBV reactivation was identified incidentally. The patient developed hepatitis that improved with entecavir therapy. Our case might indicate that the presence of NASH is associated with HBV reactivation long after treatment and that statins, as immune-modulatory agents, affect HBV reactivation.
