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

The aim of the present study was to analyze the efficacy and safety of tenofovir (TDF) treatment for up to 5 years in nucleos(t)ide-naïve chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, particularly those with a high viral load, a in real-life scenario. A total of 144 nucleos(t)ide-naïve CHB patients who received TDF monotherapy for at least 3 months were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoint measure was the achievement of virological response (VR; undetectable serum HBV DNA, <100 IU/ml). The secondary endpoints were alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization (ALT < upper limit of normal), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion and safety. The median follow-up period was 120 weeks (range, 12-264 weeks). In total, 144, 130, 114, 78, 67, 40 and 13 patients were followed up for at least 12, 24, 48, 96, 144, 192 and 240 weeks, respectively. An incremental trend was observed in the rate of VR: 73.1, 91.3, 98.1, 100, 100 and 100% of the patients exhibited VR at 24, 48, 96, 144, 192 and 240 weeks, respectively. Furthermore, 29 patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA ≥8 log
