Review in Expert opinion on investigational drugs, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03852433 (A Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized Phase 2b Clinical Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Bulevirtide in Combination With Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis Delta), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers.

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.

Abstract

introductionChronic Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection is a global disease leading to rapidly progressive liver disease with increased liver-related mortality and hepatocellular carcinoma. Therapies are minimally effective; however, an increased understanding of the HDV lifecycle has provided new potential drug targets. Thus, there is a growing number of investigational therapeutics under exploration for HDV with the potential for successful viral eradication. AREAS COVERED: This review discusses the clinical impact of HDV infection and offers an in-depth look at the HDV life cycle. The authors examine current and new drug targets and the investigational therapies in clinical trials. The search strategy was based on PubMed database and clinicaltrials.gov which highlight the most up-to-date aspects of investigational therapies for chronic HDV infection.
