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

There have been few studies on relapse after a sustained virological response in hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients treated with interferon-free regimens. Thus, the risk of late relapse in patients treated with interferon-free therapy remains unclear. A 67-year-old woman with HCV genotype 1b and liver cirrhosis received oral daclatasvir and asunaprevir. Combination therapy was stopped after 4 weeks because of an episode of encephalopathy. Nonetheless, an HCV polymerase chain reaction at 24 weeks posttreatment was negative. However, HCV ribonucleic acid was detectable at approximately 62 weeks posttreatment. Very late HCV relapses may occur in patients with liver cirrhosis who receive an interferon-free regimen when the treatment period is insufficient.
