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 epidemiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the Asia Pacific will undergo significant change over the next few decades as the prevalence of viral hepatitis declines and the burden of metabolic diseases increases. As the Asia Pacific embraces continued affluence, obesity and diabetes rates are burgeoning, becoming increasingly important to the incidence of HCC. Obesity and diabetes are established risk factors for HCC, either as substrates for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or as independent carcinogens themselves. This review summarises the epidemiological data on changing HCC trends in the Asia Pacific, particularly as it pertains to the emerging problem of NAFLD-related HCC.
