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

backgroundWe aimed to clarify the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located near interleukin 28B and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

methodsA cohort comprising 792 patients treated with interferon for chronic hepatitis C was investigated. SNPs at rs8099917 and rs12979860 were determined. Cumulative incidence and HCC risk were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard analyses for a mean follow-up period of 4.9 years. Fibrosis progression rate (FPR) was determined in these patients with a known time of infection (n = 294).

resultsCumulative HCC incidence was significantly higher in rs8099917 nonTT (minor homozygote or heterozygote) patients than in rs8099917 TT (major homozygote) patients (20.8 vs. 10.5% over 10 years, logrank test, p = 0.002). This difference was notable in patients infected with genotype 1 and those treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Among nonSVRs, interferon had a limited effect in suppressing alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or α-fetoprotein (AFP) levels in nonTT patients. The suppression of these values after interferon therapy was associated with a lower incidence of HCC. FPR were similar in TT and nonTT patients.

conclusionsrs8099917 nonTT is related to higher HCC development in patients with HCV genotype 1 and those treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Higher HCC incidence observed in nonTT patients partly results from the limited suppression of ALT and/or AFP by interferon in these patients.
