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

Purpose: The predictors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and a sustained virologic response after direct-acting antiviral therapy are not well known. Patients and Methods: Between September 2012 and March 2022, this retrospective study enrolled 4426 consecutive patients from 4 hospitals in Taiwan. The patients were divided into derivation (n = 3178) and validation (n = 1248) groups. Results: In the derivation group, age, diabetes mellitus, platelet, albumin, and alpha-fetoprotein at 12 weeks after antiviral therapy were independent predictors of hepatocellular carcinoma. We incorporated these predictors into a novel risk prediction model called the AAAPD-C score ( Conclusion: The AAAPD-C score can predict the risk of HCC in patients with chronic hepatitis C and a sustained virologic response after direct-acting antiviral therapy. The tool is accurate and inexpensive, and clinicians can use it to identify patients with chronic hepatitis C at risk of HCC following viral eradication.
