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
Background/aims: This investigation assessed the clinical outcomes and adverse effects of combination therapy using sofosbuvir (SOF) and daclatasvir (DCV) among dialysis-dependent patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes 1b or 2a in real-world settings. Methods: We conducted a prospective, single-arm interventional trial comprising 16maintenance hemodialysis patients (14 with HCV-1b, 2 with HCV-2a). Participants received SOF-DCV combination therapy over 24 weeks with monitoring at weeks 4, 12, and 24 during treatment, plus a follow-up assessment 12 weeks post-treatment completion. The primary outcome measure was sustained virologic response at 12 weeks post-treatment (SVR12). Secondary endpoints included therapeutic tolerance and safety profiles. Results: All 16 participants completed the prescribed treatment regimen. Demographic characteristics revealed a mean age of 57.0 years, male predominance (75%), average dialysis duration of 7.0 years, and mean body weight of 63.0 kg. Five patients (31.3%) had compensated cirrhosis. Liver function parameters remained stable throughout the study period. Rapid virologic response (RVR) was documented in 87.5% (14/16) of participants, while end-of-treatment response (ETR) and SVR12 were both achieved in 93.8% (15/16) of cases. All cirrhotic patients (5/5) ultimately attained SVR12. The therapeutic regimen demonstrated favorable tolerability, with no treatment discontinuations due to adverse events. One participant was lost to follow-up. APRI scores significantly decreased from baseline (0.56) to week 24 (0.20, Conclusion: The 12-week SOF-DCV combination demonstrated robust therapeutic efficacy and acceptable safety profiles in hemodialysis patients infected with HCV genotypes 1b or 2a, including those with compensated cirrhosis.
