[Sustained virologic response in patients with hepatitis C and chronic kidney disease].
Article in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a higher prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection compared to the general population, and they also present higher morbidity and mortality if they are not treated. Current treatment is based on different direct-acting antiviral (DAA) schemes, which are available in the Mexican health system. However, the efficacy and safety of DAA treatment in patients with CKD on hemodialysis and HCV infection are unknown in Mexican population. Objective: To determine the efficacy through sustained viral response (SVR) and the safety of DAAs in patients with CKD on hemodialysis and chronic HCV infection in the Mexican population. Material and methods: Real-life cohort study. Patients with CKD on hemodialysis and HCV infection treated with DAAs from a third level hospital were included. Descriptive statistics of the clinical characteristics were performed, efficacy was determined by SVR and safety with the global frequency of adverse effects associated with treatment. Results: 25 patients were included. All of them received treatment with glecaprebir/pibrentasvir for 8 weeks. The mean age was 57.8 years and the median time of CKD on hemodialysis was 5 years. 96% of patients had HCV genotype 1B. 100% of the patients presented SVR and the most frequent adverse effects were headache, nausea and fatigue. Conclusions: In the Mexican population studied, patients with HCV and CKD on hemodialysis presented a sustained viral response of 100% with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir with mild adverse effects.
