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

Objective: This article aims to study the influencing factors of pgRNA and its change magnitude based on the real world. Methods: A total of 421 patients who were tested for pgRNA were selected. According to the baseline data, the subjects were divided into negative and positive groups. The Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of pgRNA status. Based on the follow-up data, the rank-sum test and linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of pgRNA change magnitude. Results: A total of 153 (36.3%) of the 421 subjects were pgRNA-negative and 268 (63.7%) were pgRNA-positive. Logistic regression analysis showed that positive HBV DNA (OR: 40.51), positive HBeAg (OR: 66.24), tenofovir treatment (OR: 23.47), and entecavir treatment (OR: 14.90) were the independent risk factors for positive pgRNA. Univariate linear regression showed that the pgRNA change magnitude of patients treated with entecavir was higher than that of patients treated with tenofovir. Multivariate linear regression showed that age was an independent factor influencing pgRNA change magnitude. Conclusions: The pgRNA of patients who were young, female, HBV DNA-positive, high-HBsAg, HBeAg-positive is higher than the detection line. HBV DNA and HBeAg are the independent risk factors of positive pgRNA. Different antiviral regimens and disease stages have significantly different effects on pgRNA status. There was a significant correlation between pgRNA and FIB-4, suggesting that pgRNA is related to liver fibrosis. The decrease in pgRNA was greater in young patients than in non-young patients. The decrease in pgRNA was greater in patients treated with tenofovir than in patients treated with entecavir.
