The different effects of adefovir dipivoxil and telbivudine on the prognosis of hepatitis b virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients after curative resection.

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.
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
Numerous studies suggested that antiviral therapy could reduce the recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after hepatectomy. The impact of nucleotide and nucleoside analogues on prognosis of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) related HCC remains to be explored. We aimed to investigate the role of the telbivudine and adefovir dipivoxil on the prognosis of CHB-related HCC patients after hepatectomy.One hundred eighty-eight CHB-related patients who received hepatectomy from February 2010 to February 2017 were divided into telbivudine (LdT) and adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) groups. The characteristics and survival information of both groups were retrospectively compared and analyzed.One hundred eleven and 77 patients received telbivudine and adefovir dipivoxil monotherapy, respectively. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin level, status of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), serum HBV-DNA level were compared between groups. OS and DFS in ADV-treatment group were significantly better than it in LdT-treatment group (P < .05). In the subgroups analysis, we found that ADV treatment was significantly associated with better DFS and OS among patients with cirrhosis, HBeAg-negative patients, or those with detectable HBV-DNA.CHB-related HCC patients receiving long-term ADV-treatment had a better OS and DFS than patients receiving LdT-treatment after hepatectomy.
