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

Foci of altered hepatocytes (FAH) were induced in fetal turkey liver (FTL) by diethyl nitrosamine. FAH in FTL were resistant to iron overload similar to FAH in humans and rodents. The mitotic index was significantly higher in FAH (6.2 mitosis in 1000 hepatocytes) than in extrafocal liver tissue (1.8 mitosis in 1000 hepatocytes). The calculation of the net growth rate based on both cell proliferation (mitosis) and cell death (TUNEL positive) revealed a threefold growth advantage of the FAH over the surrounding liver. Two well established anti-tumor substances from different chemical classes, different modes of action and with different clinical use in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were used to study their effect on FAH. Sorafenib is the only approved drug for systemic pharmacological treatment of HCC; cisplatin has been used for many years in hepatic arterial infusion. Cisplatin had no clear effect on number of size of FAH, cell proliferation (mitosis) or cell loss (TUNEL positive). Sorafenib enhanced the development of FAH. Morphometric quantification revealed a sorafenib-induced 2-3-fold increase in number (FAH per cm
