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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide and its incidence is still increasing. While the primary curative treatment for HCC is surgical resection, a major obstacle for the treatment of HCC is the high frequency of tumor recurrence even after curative resection. Effective palliative treatment is hindered by the evidence that HCC is frequently resistant to conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Targeted therapy which specifically inhibits molecular abnormalities has emerged as a novel approach for the innovative and effective medical treatment of malignancies. In order to fulfill this promise there is an urgent need to identify the optimal targets for the treatment of HCC. A multi-kinase angiogenesis inhibitor, sorafenib, has been revealed as the first agent to show favorable overall survival in patients with advanced HCC. A new era of HCC treatment has arrived, but there has been limited improvement in survival benefits with the status quo. This review summarizes molecular targeted therapy for HCC, with a focus on angiogenesis, growth signaling, and mitosis, as well as a promising concept, "cancer stemness" for the current and potential next strategies of HCC treatment.
