Recent breakthroughs in the treatment of chronic hepatitis Delta.
Review in Le infezioni in medicina, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Hepatitis Delta virus (HDV) is responsible for the most aggressive form of chronic hepatitis, which may evolve towards cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma and death within few years. During the last 30 years the only available therapy was interferon or peg-IFN, which was characterized by poor tolerability and modest results. The detailed knowledge of the HDV replication cycle and its interaction with HBV allowed the introduction of new drugs which are currently in phase II or III of experimentation. Basically, bulevirtide, to date the only one approved by EMA, inhibits the entry of the virus into the hepatocytes and hence its intrahepatic spread; lonafarnib inhibits the pharnesylation process of the L-HDAg, which is critical for the assembly of the HDV virion; the nucleic acid polymers (NAPs) mainly block the production/release of HBsAg. The available clinical trials with these compounds showed an excellent anti-viral activity against HDV.
