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

Dual infection of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) is closely associated with an increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma; however, the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. In the present study, we found that HBV X protein (HBx) and HCV core protein work together to inhibit E-cadherin expression in human hepatoma cells. For this effect, they additively increased both the level and activity of enzymes, DNA methyltransferase 1, 3a, and 3b to induce promoter hypermethylation of E-cadherin in a p53-dependent fashion. Their additive effect on E-cadherin levels was reproduced in an
