Hepatitis B virus infection during pregnancy and the risk of postpartum hemorrhage: a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in International journal of surgery protocols, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a significant public health issue worldwide, with a hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroprevalence of 3.5%. Maternal HBV infection during pregnancy, a common comorbidity, is associated with an increase in the risk of adverse obstetric and perinatal outcomes. However, the relationship between maternal HBV infection and postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), a leading contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, is currently uncertain. The aim of this study is to comprehensively clarify the potential impact of maternal HBV on PPH risk. Methods and Analysis: The authors initially searched five English databases and three Chinese databases from their inception to 26th June 2023. Two reviewers will independently conduct study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment. Cohort and case-control studies investigating the effect of maternal HBV infection on PPH will be included, with study quality assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Meta-analyses will be performed using a fixed-effects model for Ethics and Dissemination: This systematic review and meta-analysis do not require ethics approval and the results will be published in peer-reviewed journals. The findings of this systematic review will provide evidence on the impact of maternal HBV infection on PPH, which will contribute to better prevention and management of PPH in clinical practice and a better understanding of the disease burden of HBV infection.
