HBV infection and pregnancy: Increased risks of gestational diabetes and preterm birth.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: To investigate the effects of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection status on the outcomes of pregnancy. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at Shunde Hospital of Southern Medical University (The First People's Hospital of Shunde) from 1 Results: Pregnant women who tested positive for HBsAg had higher rates of gestational diabetes mellitus (P=0.019; OR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.03-1.40), intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (P=0.019; OR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.11-3.09) and preterm birth before 34 weeks (P=0.013; OR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.15-3.34). The relationship between HBV infection status with gestational diabetes mellitus, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and preterm birth before 34 weeks was significant. Conclusions: Pregnant women who tested positive for HBsAg faced a higher likelihood of developing gestational diabetes mellitus, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, and giving birth prematurely before 34 weeks. Further clarification is required regarding the influence of HBV infection on the outcomes of pregnancy.
