Possible Alterations in Appetite-related Molecules After the Elimination of Hepatitis C Virus.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimRecent advances in antiviral treatment have achieved a sustained viral response (SVR) in over 95% of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. HCV elimination is suggested to improve several lifestyle-related factors; however, few studies have focused on dietary habit-/appetite-related factors. PATIENTS AND
methodsHCV-infected patients who received Daclatasvir/Asnaprevir (DCV/ASV) therapy were enrolled, and the changes in appetite-related molecules after antiviral therapy were assessed with a multiple cytokine-measuring system.
resultsAmong 119 HCV-infected patients who received DCV/ASV treatment, 104 (87.3%) achieved an SVR. In the SVR group, DCV/ASV treatment improved several liver-related variables at 24 weeks after the completion of therapy. In patients with an SVR, the values of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and leptin were significantly increased at 24 weeks after completing direct-acting antiviral therapy. However, no significant change was observed in non-SVR patients, regardless of the receipt of direct-acting antiviral treatment.
conclusionGastrointestinal hormones related to the dietary habit and/or appetite may be influenced by HCV elimination.
