Efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir-containing regimens in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection after liver transplantation: a meta-analysis.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThis meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of a sofosbuvir (SOF)-containing regimen in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after liver transplantation (LT).
methodsWe performed a systematic search for relevant published data on the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases. Studies that evaluated any regimen in which SOF was used to treat patients with HCV infection after LT and reported the sustained virologic response 12 weeks (SVR12) after therapy were included.
resultsA total of 12 studies, involving 892 patients, were included in this analysis. The pooled estimate of SVR12 (sustained virologic response 12 weeks) was 88.1%. Subgroup analysis showed that patients who received SOF plus other DAAs had higher SVR12 than those treated with SOF plus ribavirin or peg-IFN. The pooled incidence of any adverse events (AEs) was 73.7%.
conclusionsThe results of this study showed that the treatment response of SOF-containing regimens in patients with HCV infection after LT was satisfactory. However, more attention needs to be paid to the high rate of AEs associated with such regimens.
