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

backgroundWe hypothesized that microvascular invasion (MVI) and post-resection prognosis in patients with solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) could be predicted using blood tumor markers and tumor volume (TV). We intended to identify a simple surrogate marker of HCC via a combination of clinical variables.

methodsThis retrospective study used the strictly selected development cohort (n = 1176) and validation cohort (n = 551) containing patients who underwent curative resection of solitary HCC.

resultsIn the development cohort study, the median values were 13.7 mL for TV, 24.2 ng/mL for α-fetoprotein (AFP), and 75 mAU/mL for des-γ-carboxy prothrombin (DCP); there was no correlation among these three factors (r

conclusionsWe suggest that ADV score is an integrated surrogate marker of HCC prognosis. We believe that it can be used to predict MVI and post-resection prognosis for solitary HCC.
