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

Fatigue is a major symptom among patients with Hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the physiological mechanisms regarding mediate fatigue and the relationships between fatigue, cortisol and cytokines are unclear in patients with HBV. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between perceived fatigue, cortisol, and cytokines in Korean patients with HBV. The mean score for overall fatigue was moderate. In linear regression analyses, TNF-α was only significant as a predictor of fatigue. In quantile regression analyses, the cortisol level was significant in the 70
