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
A 74-year-old man with a history of transfusion at 35 years old in Egypt was referred to our hospital. He was infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 4 (GT4), which is a rare HCV GT in Japan, and was also diagnosed with hepatic compensated cirrhosis. We safely treated the patient for 12 weeks with the combination of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir, and a sustained virologic response (SVR) was achieved. This is the first report of HCV GT4 infection in a treatment-naïve Japanese patient with cirrhosis in whom SVR was achieved with the combination treatment of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir.
