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

aim of the studyAim of the study was to assess the impact of the recipient and donor interferon lambda-3 (IFNL3) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs12979860 and rs8099917 on the course of hepatitis C virus (HCV) reinfection following liver transplantation. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study involved 141 subjects after liver transplantation for HCV-induced cirrhosis, performed between 2000 and 2015. It assessed the impact of both SNPs on the outcomes of interferon/ribavirin (IFN/RBV) treatment following transplantation, HCV viral load, laboratory test results, histological lesions in the liver graft, the risk of acute rejection, and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patient's own liver.

resultsIn the case of rs12979860, SVR was achieved in 58.8% of recipients with the CC genotype, and only 12% of recipients with the TT genotype (

conclusionsThe IFNL3 rs12979860 polymorphism may be considered a predictor for IFN/RBV effectiveness following liver transplantation. The course of HCV reinfection following liver transplantation may be more aggressive if an unfavorable variant in the recipient coexists with a promising variant in the donor. Particularly careful monitoring for HCC in recipients with unfavorable IFNL3 variants is warranted.
