Direct-acting antiviral agents in patients with hepatitis C genotype 1-4 infections in a tertiary hospital.
Observational study in Revista espanola de quimioterapia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Quimioterapia, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of chronic liver disease. Six different genotypes (GT) of HCV (genotypes 1-6) have been identified. The genotype is clinically relevant since the majority of current direct antiviral agents (DAA´s) do not have pangenotypic efficacy. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics of real world patients and evaluate the effectiveness of different treatment regimens.
methodsRetrospective and observational study carried out in a third level hospital. Study period: January 2015-January 2016. Inclusion criteria: HCV patients of any genotype treated with either DAAs ± rivabirin (RBV) or DAAs + RBV + pegilated interferon (Peg-IFN) regimens for 12 weeks. Exclusion criteria: patients without adequate clinical or analytical information available for further analysis. Patients treated for 24 weeks were excluded. The main endpoint was sustained virologic response 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12), and secondary endpoint was SVR24.
resultsA total of 515 patients were included (aged 55.52±8.97 years). GT1: patients treated with simeprevir + sofosbuvir (SIM + SOF), ledipavir (LDV)/SOF and paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir + dasabuvir (PTV/r/OBV + DSV) ± RBV had a SVR12 of 93.59% (190/203), 98.82% (N=84/85), 94.28% (66/70), respectively. Regarding daclatasvir (DCV) + SOF and SIM + DCV, everybody (19/19) and 87.5% (7/8) got SVR12, respectively. GT2: 71.42% (N=10/14) of patients achieved SVR12, concretely, SOF + RBV had a SVR12 75% (N=6/8). GT3: 43.75% (N=7/16), 90% (N=9/10) and 95% (N=19/20) of patients treated with LDV/SOF, LDV/SOF + RBV and SOF + DCV obtained SVR12, respectively. GT4: patients treated with LDV/SOF, SIM + SOF and PTV/r/OBV ± RBV had a SVR12 rate of 100% (21/21), 91.67% (22/24) and 92% (23/25), respectively. All patients that got SVR12 achieved SVR24.
conclusionsOur study confirmed the efficacy data reported in clinical trials in a cohort of patients with GT1-4 and a wide range of basal characteristics.
