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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe prognosis and severity of hepatitis B virus-associated acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF) cannot be well-identified by serum biomarkers. The present study aims to determine the role of serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) in predicting the prognosis and severity of liver necrotizing inflammation induced by HBV-ACLF.

methodsA total of 427 chronic HBV-infected patients were included for the present study. Among these patients, 179 patients had chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 96 patients had HBV-related liver cirrhosis (LC), and 152 patients had HBV-ACLF. The baseline and dynamic changes in serum GP73 levels were measured and compared in CHB, LC and HBV-ACLF patients.

resultsThe serum GP73 levels were significantly greater in HBV-ACLF patients when compared to CHB and LC patients. Furthermore, serum GP73 demonstrated excellent performance in distinguishing HBV-ACLF from CHB and LC, with an area under the curve of 0.969 and 0.824, respectively. In the logistic regression analysis, a high GP73 level was identified as an independent risk factor associated with death within 3 months, and the optimal cut-off level was 274.59 ng/mL. The serum GP73 levels significantly decreased and remained stable at approximately 6 months for survivors.

conclusionSerum GP73 may serve as a valuable biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of HBV-ACLF patients.
