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

backgroundThe ability to evaluate the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following hepatectomy using biological markers is of great importance. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this study, we collected samples from 54 patients with HCC after hepatectomy. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of Sema3C and MFN2 in the HCC samples.

resultsImmunohistochemistry results showed that Sema3C and MFN2 co-expression was significantly associated with tumor size. In addition, a significant association between high Sema3C and low MFN2 levels and shorter overall survival was noted, when Sema3C and MFN2 co-expression was analyzed.

conclusionThe results suggest that the correlative expression level of Sema3C and MFN2 has a strong value in the prognosis of patients with HCC following hepatectomy.
