A statistical analysis of the correlations among various types of clinical indexes for patients with chronic hepatitis B: A hospital-based study.
Observational study in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the commonest chronic infections, especially in Asia and Africa, which put a heavy burden worldwide. With the advanced knowledge of HBV, early detection, primary care, and hepatology have made huge progression than before. However, the relationship between gender, age, and different key parameters in HBV patients remains to be determined.In this study, we measured various physiological and biochemical indexes in a large cohort of HBV patients as well as healthy control. We investigated the strength of correlations among those indexes and reported instantaneous imaging results. Moreover, we examined the effects of various grouping modes such as by gender or age on liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and controlled attenuation parameters (CAPs). We compared their diagnostic values for hepatic fibrosis in HBV patients.The results showed that specimens from a healthy control were obviously clustering tightly together, while the specimens from the HBV patients were clustering into several subgroups. Direct bilirubin (DB), total bilirubin (TB), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) occurred together with the diagnosis of HBV. Furthermore, groups categorized by Gender had significant effects on fibrotouch measurement not only in HBV patients but also in healthy control.Our research was to evaluate the actual effects of various parameters on Fibrotouch and make improvement of the critical value of those medical indexes.
