Hepatitis C Antiviral Therapy In Patients With Successfully Treated Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Dancing With Wolves.
Review in Journal of hepatocellular carcinoma, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is known to be one of the leading causes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) all over the world. Previously, multiple studies have confirmed a decreased rate of HCC occurrence or recurrence in the cases of hepatitis C associated cirrhosis after treatment with interferon, in comparison to the untreated cases, even in the absence of clearance of HCV. Treatment programs with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) as a new method for HCV treatment and cure in 2014, with higher safety and efficacy, were considered as an important step in the treatment of patients with history of HCC, improving their overall prognosis. Recently, reports coming from various European centers claimed that the risk of HCC increased following DAAs therapy, especially in cases with previous HCC. Moreover, other studies revealed that the recurrence of HCC after DAAs treatment was more aggressive. Even though others were not able to conclude the same results, the role of DAA therapy in recurrence of HCC in patients with previous HCC after sustained virological response (SVR) achievement remains questionable. This review explored the existing literature and discussed opinions on the possibility of increasing recurrence of HCC following DAA therapy, possible mechanisms, predictors of HCC recurrence post DAAs, and whether those patients should be treated or not.
