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

Background: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can be a useful tool in the clinical management of anti-hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV) drugs. Methods for the determination of various types of anti-HCV drugs in biological samples are, therefore, needed for clinical laboratories. Objective: In this work, employing the LC-MS/MS approach, we aimed to develop a multiplexed method for identification of the following anti-HCV drugs: Ribavirin (RBV), Boceprevir (BOC), Telaprevir (TVR), Simeprevir (SIM), Daclatasvir (DAC), Sofosbuvir (SOF) and its metabolite GS 331007 (SOFM) in liquid plasma and in dried plasma spots (DPSs). Method: A single-step extractive-deproteinization was employed for both liquid plasma and DPSs. Reverse-phase liquid chromatography coupled with MRM detection was developed for multiplexed drug detection and quantification. Results: Sensitivities (expressed as LOQ) were 10 (±1.2), 10 (±4.9), 10 (±4.4), 10 (±4.4), 10 (±6.4), 10 (±3.4), 10 (±6.4) ng/ml for RBV, SOFM, SOF, DAC, BOC, TVR, and SIM, respectively; accuracy (expressed as BIAS%) was <10% for all drugs; reproducibility (intra- and inter-day CV%) was <10% for all drugs; dynamic range was 10-10,000 ng/ml for all drugs. Conclusions: A novel, simple, rapid and robust LC-MS/MS multiplex assay for the TDM of various anti-HCV drugs that are currently in the clinic was successfully developed. Application to DPS samples enabled TDM to be used for outpatients as well.
