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

There are an estimated 3.5 million people with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in the United States, resulting in 15 000 HCV-related deaths in 2019 and approximately $7 billion annually in healthcare costs. Although the United States had experienced declining incidence, since 2010 hepatitis C infections have rebounded. The history of HCV treatment can be seen as a series of scientific triumphs that should be celebrated as the accomplishments that they represent. But new treatments will only get us so far: Social determinants of health drive the majority of health outcomes. Without addressing the factors that impact the lives of our patients, we will fall short in the outcomes we seek. Public health systems, hospital networks, and governments must work more cohesively to eradicate hepatitis C. We have the tools, both biomedical and social. The end of hepatitis C depends on our willingness to make use of them.
