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: Kaposi sarcoma, caused by the pathogen Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), is the most common neoplasm for patients with AIDS. Susceptibility to KSHV has been associated with several different genetic risk variants. The purpose of this study was to test whether variants of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) and their human leukocyte antigen (HLA-I) ligands influence the risk of KSHV infection. Methods: A case-control study was performed in Xinjiang, a KSHV-endemic region of China. We recruited 299 individuals with HIV, including 123 KSHV-seropositive persons and 176 KSHV-seronegative controls. We used logistic regression and the MiDAS package to evaluate the association between Results: Conclusions: This study provides further insight into the link between
