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 and aim: Advanced liver fibrosis is a major risk for developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients. Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) which are used for treating HCV infection, produce more than 90% cure rate but do not seem to diminish the rate of occurrence or recurrence of HCC. This study aimed to investigate the effect of DAAs sofosbuvir (SOF) and daclatasvir (DAC) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl Methods: Eighty adult male Swiss albino mice were randomly allocated into 8 groups (10 mice/group): normal control group, SOF group (receiving SOF 80 mg/kg body weight (BW), oral gavage, daily), DAC group (receiving DAC 30 mg/kg BW, oral gavage, daily), SOF + DAC group (receiving a combination of both, daily), CCl4 model group (receiving CCl Results: CCl Conclusions: SOF and DAC may possess an antifibrotic effect that is independent of their role as antiviral agents against CCl
