Evaluated outcomes in patients with Chronic Hepatitis C.

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
aimThe objective of this study was to evaluate the real outcomes of chronic hepatitis C patients, who treated with interferon plus ribavirin (INF-RBV) and peg-interferon plus ribavirin (PEG-RBV).
backgroundDespite the PEG-RBV has become a standard treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) around the world; and in Iran too, but in developing countries like as Iran, INF-RBV is still used among some patients for treating HCV, due to the high costs of treatment with PEG-RBV. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe present cross-sectional study was conducted on 77 naïve patients referred to a private gastroenterology clinic between years 2007 through 2009 in Tehran. Patients had participated in this study taking two types of combination therapies, based on standard protocol of the Iranian Ministry of Health. At the end of the treatment, sustain virological response (SVR) rate was evaluated.
resultsThe outcomes showed in INF-RBV treatment; 11.6%, 16.3% and 34.9% patients were suffered from relapse, lost follow-up their treatment and non-responder, respectively, and finally 37.2% of the patients reached SVR. In PEG-RBV treatment outcomes were as follows; 2.9%, 14.7% and 14.7% patients were non-responder, lost follow-up their treatment and suffered from a relapse, respectively, and 67.6% of the patients reached SVR. The multivariate-adjusted odds ratios of outcomes showed that treated with PEG-RIB and also genotype 3a than the others genotypes in this treated had more chance to achieved SVR.
conclusionThe findings of the present study showed that the rate of SVR in patients who treated with PEG-RBV significantly was higher than patients who treated with INF-RBV. Also in PEG-RBV the chance of achieving SVR is higher among the patients with genotype 3a than among those with other genotypes.
