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
introductionAntibody to hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAb) is known to be related with the prognosis for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aims to evaluate the prognostic capacity of HbcAb and other donor/recipient hepatitis B seroepidemiological indexes in transplantation for HCC.
methodsBased on the national liver transplant registry, we analyzed the prognostic capacity of HBcAb in liver transplantation for patients with HCC of different etiological backgrounds. The hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related HCC cohort was further studied regarding donor/recipient hepatitis B seroepidemiology, and then divided into a training cohort (n = 1,222) and a validation cohort (n = 611) to develop a pretransplant recurrence-risk predicting nomogram.
resultsPositive HbcAb in recipients was related to an increased risk of post-transplant tumor recurrence in HBV-related (n = 1,833, P = 0.007), HCV-related (n = 79, P = 0.037), and non-B non-C HCC (n = 313, P = 0.017). In HBV-related HCC (n = 1,833), donor hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) was also associated with post-transplant tumor recurrence (P = 0.020). Multivariate analysis showed that the matching status of recipient HbcAb and donor HbsAg (MSHB) was an independent prognostic factor (P = 0.017). HbcAb-positive recipients matched with HbsAg-positive donors displayed the worst post-transplant outcomes (P < 0.001). In the training cohort (n = 1,222), a risk-predicting nomogram was established based on α-fetoprotein, Milan criteria, and MSHB. The model showed excellent prognostic capacity and safely expanded Milan criteria in both training and validation cohorts (P < 0.001). DISCUSSION: Positive HbcAb in recipients increases the risk of post-transplant tumor recurrence in HCC with different etiological backgrounds. The nomogram based on MSHB is effective in predicting tumor recurrence after transplantation for HBV-related HCC.
