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

backgroundAlthough hepatitis B virus (HBV) is still one of the most common etiological factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the association between the HBV mutations and the clinical characteristics and prognosis of HBV-related HCC patients (HBV-HCC) after surgical resection remains largely unknown. MATERIALS AND

methodsA cohort of 131 consecutive patients who received hepatectomy for HBV-HCC were retrospectively enrolled. The HBV genotype and 14 genomic mutations, which have been reported to relate to HCC in liver samples, were sequenced. The associations between the genomic mutations and clinical characteristics and outcomes were analyzed.

resultsBoth A1762T/G1764A mutation and Pre S deletion related to worse overall survival (OS,

conclusionHBV DNA genomic mutations in A1762T/G1764A and Pre S deletion were associated with worse prognoses and early recurrence for HBV-HCC patients after surgery.
