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

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been used as a non-invasive biomarker for detecting cancer-specific mutations. However, the mutational profile of cfDNA in Thai patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been investigated. Here, we demonstrated the utility of using whole-exome sequencing (WES) of cfDNA to define the somatic mutation profiles of HCC in Thai patients. The comprehensive profile of cfDNA was determined with WES to identify variants in matched cfDNA and germline DNA from 30 HCC patients in Thailand who underwent nonoperative therapies. The level of cfDNA was higher in HCC patients compared with chronic hepatitis patients (
