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

backgroundSystemic inflammation (SI) is associated with tumor progression and overall survival (OS) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The presence of some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region can influence the prognosis of patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related HCC, although the mechanism remains unknown. This study aimed to analyze the correlations between HLA gene polymorphisms and SI. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis study included 330 patients with HCC. The clinical parameters were reviewed, and five SNPs, namely rs2647073, rs3997872, rs3077, rs7453920, and rs7768538, were genotyped using the MassARRAY system.

resultsThe rs3997872, rs7453920, and rs7768538 genotypes were found to be significantly associated with OS (

conclusionOur data show that HLA gene polymorphisms are associated with SI in patients with HBV-related HCC, and the absence of minor allele A (rs7453920) promotes SI and shortens OS.
