Effects of co-infection with Clonorchis sinensis on the sex hormones levels in male patients with chronic hepatitis B.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveWe evaluated the levels of sex hormones in male hepatitis B patients co-infected with Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis).
methodsA total of 136 male individuals were enrolled in this study, including 27 healthy controls, 28 patients with C. sinensis mono-infection, 19 patients with only chronic hepatitis B, 18 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis, 26 chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. sinensis, and 18 post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis patients coinfected with C. sinensis. Serum levels of progesterone (P), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2), testosterone (T), prolactin (PRL), and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in these groups were measured.
resultsThe results showed that compared with the LC group, the LC
conclusionThis study suggests that C. sinensis co-infection aggravates the sex hormone disturbance in HBV patients at both chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis stages, providing evidences for potential strategies in disease prevention and treatment.
