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

The Coalition for Global Hepatitis Elimination's National Hepatitis Elimination Profiles assess the status of national data, policy, and programme development for the elimination of viral hepatitis. To date, profiles from 33 countries and territories have been developed. These profiles reveal that 30 (91%) countries and territories have hepatitis C national action plans, 11 (33%) have systems to monitor hepatitis C-related mortality, 16 (48%) have systems to monitor hepatitis C incidence, and 18 (55%) have systems to track the number of people tested and treated. Some countries and territories continue to uphold barriers to hepatitis C treatment, with 12 (36%) still having partial or full restrictions on prescribing authority for non-specialists. Ten (30%) countries and territories have met the WHO 2025 diagnosis coverage target of 60%, five (15%) have met the treatment target of 50%, and seven (21%) have met the needle and syringe exchange target. Although there are examples of countries and territories across the income spectrum meeting these targets, policy development in low-income and middle-income countries and territories generally lags behind that in high-income countries and territories.
