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

The prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in Pediatric patients with lymphoproliferative diseases has most commonly been reported with B cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Case studies have reported the requirement of dose reduction or suspension of chemotherapy in 80% of Pediatric ALL cases who are anti-HCV positive owing to hepatotoxicity. The standard of care anti HCV therapy in children aged 3-17 years had been peginterferon and ribavirin for 48 weeks. FDA approved pan-genotypic, anti- HCV regimen, sofosbuvir/velpatasvir [SOF/VEL], for the Pediatric population >6yrs of age or >17 kg body weight in March 2020. We herein report a case of an HCV infected Pediatric B cell ALL patient who was treated with SOF/VEL concomitantly with an intensive chemotherapy regimen. Child tolerated the full dose chemotherapy along with antivirals for 12 weeks and was in morphological remission with sustained virological response.
