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

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) poses a significant public health concern, particularly among immunocompromised populations. This study aimed to investigate HEV seroprevalence, clinical characteristics, and associated risk factors in people living with HIV (PLWH) in Shanghai, China. A retrospective analysis was conducted on serum IgG and IgM antibodies specific to HEV in 670 PLWH and 464 HIV-negative health-check attendees. The overall anti-HEV seropositivity rate among PLWH was 30.15% (202/670, 95% CI 26.68-33.62), with an IgG positivity rate of 30.00% (201/670, 95% CI 26.53-33.47). IgM positivity was observed in 1.19% (8/670, 95% CI 0.59-2.39) of PLWH, and dual IgM/IgG positivity was observed in 1.04% (7/670, 95% CI 0.50-2.16) of PLWH. The seropositivity rate of anti-HEV IgG in the HIV-negative health-check attendees was 17.67% (82/464, 95% confidence interval: 14.20-21.14), with no IgM positivity, which was significantly lower than that in PLWH (χ
