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

backgroundThe interruption of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is considered important to decrease the individual and population morbidity of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection as well as the global burden of hepatitis B. Serum vitamin D (VD) is associated with hepatitis B.

aimTo assess whether baseline VD levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms of the VD receptor gene (VDR SNPs) are associated with the efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in the prevention of MTCT in pregnant women with high HBV viral loads.

methodsThirty-eight pregnant women who were at high risk for MTCT of HBV (those with an HBV DNA level ≥ 2 × 10

resultsA total of 38 pregnant women in Mianyang City at high risk for MTCT of HBV were enrolled in the study. The MTCT rate was 0%. No mother achieved hepatitis B e antigen or hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) clearance at delivery. Twenty-three (60.5%) participants were full responders, and 15 (39.5%) participants were partial responders according to antiviral efficacy. The present study showed that a high percentage (76.3%) of pregnant women with high HBV viral loads had deficient (< 20 ng/mL) or insufficient (≥ 20 but < 31 ng/mL) VD levels. Serum 25(OH)D levels in partial responders appeared to be significantly lower than those in full responders both at baseline (25.44 ± 9.42

conclusionMaternal VD levels and VDR SNPs may be associated with the efficacy of antiviral therapy in pregnant women with high HBV viral loads. Future studies to evaluate the therapeutic value of VD and its analogs in reducing the MTCT of HBV may be justified.
