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

High plasma protein binding (PPB) levels not only affect drug-target engagement but can also impact exposure of hepatocytes to antivirals and thereby affect antiviral activity. In this study, we assessed the effect of PPB on the antiviral activity of NVR 3-778, a sulfamoylbenzamide capsid assembly modulator (CAM). To this end, primary human hepatocyte (PHH) medium was spiked with plasma proteins. First, the effect of plasma proteins on the hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection assay was evaluated. The addition of plasma proteins neither decreased cell viability nor affected HBV DNA secretion or intracellular HBV RNA accumulation. In contrast, the secretion and intracellular amount of HBV proteins were induced with increasing amounts of plasma proteins. Next, the antiviral activity of NVR 3-778 was demonstrated by multiple assays while PPB and the time-dependent disappearance of the parent drug were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Plasma proteins strongly decreased the free fraction of NVR 3-778, resulting in a physiologically relevant
