Beyond the Cure: Navigating Hepatocellular Risk and Surveillance after Hepatitis C Eradication in the Direct-acting Antiviral Era.
Review in Journal of clinical and translational hepatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have dramatically changed the landscape of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment and significantly reduced the risk of HCV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after achieving sustained virologic response. However, the risk of HCC persists, particularly in patients with pre-treatment cirrhosis or fibrosis stage 3 (F3), even after DAA-induced viral eradication. While professional guidelines agree on the need for surveillance in cirrhotic patients, there is no consensus regarding surveillance for the pre-treatment F3 population following HCV eradication. The risk of HCC in the F3 population falls below the threshold for cost-effective surveillance. However, co-existing risk factors-such as diabetes, hepatic steatosis, alcohol use, advanced age, and elevated alpha-fetoprotein levels-may warrant reconsideration of HCC surveillance in this group. This underscores the need for an individualized, risk-based approach to HCC surveillance. This review provided a simplified algorithm to assist clinicians in managing patients with HCV after DAA-induced sustained virologic response.
