Role of hepatitis A virus in diabetes mellitus.
Article in World journal of diabetes, 2021. 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
backgroundAlthough much information is available regarding hepatitis C virus infection and diabetes, less is known about the relationship between hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection and diabetes.
aimTo examine the roles of HAV in diabetes risk
methodsThis cross-sectional study population included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey collected between 2005-2012. Adult subjects (≥ 20 years old) with available body mass index measurements, defined diabetes status, history of HAV vaccination, and HAV serology were included. HAV vaccination was based on self-reported history. Successful HAV immunization was defined as the presence of both vaccination and anti-HAV antibody. HAV infection was defined by the absence of vaccination but presence of anti-hepatitis A antibody. The odds ratio (OR) for diabetes with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) was calculated for each HAV status and then adjusted for covariates. Sensitivity tests, based on different definitions of diabetes, were performed to verify the results.
resultsAmong 19942 subjects, 4229 subjects (21.21%) received HAV vaccination and HAV antibody was present in 9224 subjects (46.25%). Although HAV infection was associated with an increased risk of diabetes (OR: 1.13; 95%CI: 1.08-1.18), HAV vaccination was not associated with diabetes (OR: 1.06; 95%CI: 0.95-1.18), and successful HAV immunization had no impact on the risk of diabetes (OR: 1.11; 95%CI: 0.97-1.27). Thus, HAV infection was an unlikely cause of diabetes. Alternatively, in non-vaccinated subjects, diabetes increased the risk of HAV infection by 40% (OR: 1.40, 95%CI: 1.27-1.54).
conclusionAn association between HAV infection and diabetes is observed which is best explained by an increased risk of HAV infection in diabetic patients. Diabetic subjects are more susceptible to HAV. Thus, HAV vaccination is highly recommended in diabetic patients.
