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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly lethal tumor and the majority of postoperative patients experience recurrence. In the present study, we focus on the predictability of postoperative recurrence on HCC through the data mining method. In total, 323 patients with HCC who underwent hepatic resection were included in the present study, 156 of whom suffered from cancer recurrence. Clinicopathological data including prognosis were analyzed using the data mining method for the predictability of postoperative recurrence on HCC. The resulting alternating decision tree (ADT) was described using data mining method. This tree was validated using a 10-fold cross validation process. The average and standard deviation of the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were 69.0±8.2, 59.7±14.5 and 77.7±10.2%, respectively. The identified postoperative recurrence factors were age, viral hepatitis, stage, GOT and T-cholesterol. Data mining method could identify the factors associated at different levels of significance with postoperative recurrence of HCC. These factors could help to predict the postoperative recurrence of HCC.
