Discrepant Diagnostic Results of Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction-based Genotyping in a Patient with Hepatitis C Virus and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Coinfection.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. 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
Accurate genotyping is important to improve the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. We herein report a 44-year-old Japanese man with hemophilia A and coinfection of HCV and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who was diagnosed with HCV genotype 4 by direct sequencing. Two genotyping tests based on the nested polymerase chain reaction method that we used misdiagnosed his genotype as 2b and 1b. Although several HCV genotyping tests are available in Japan, it is important to recognize that some cannot detect genotype 4. Care should be taken when genotyping HCV patients who have received non-heated coagulation factor preparations or were infected abroad.
