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

Aim of the study: Despite the excellent effectiveness of direct-acting antivirals (DAA) in the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, still a few percent of patients fail therapy. The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of triple vs double rescue treatment in such a population. Material and methods: The study included all consecutive DAA-experienced patients retreated with pangenotypic options from the EpiTer-2 database, a retrospective national multicenter real-world project evaluating antiviral treatment in HCV-infected patients in 2015-2023. Results: The studied population consisted of 269 patients, of whom 208 were treated with the double (P2) and 61 with the triple (P3) pangenotypic option. No statistically significant differences were found between these subpopulations, except a significantly more frequent history of liver transplantation in the P3 group (6.6% vs. 0.5%, Conclusions: A comparison of double and triple pangenotypic retherapy in patients after failure of DAA therapy showed a higher sustained virological response in the triple option with a comparable response at the end of therapy. The factors reducing the chances of cure were cirrhosis, genotype 3 infection and male gender.
