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

To evaluate outcomes in patients with right atrial (RA) hepatocellular carcinoma extension treated with transarterial chemoembolization. Eight patients were retrospectively reviewed. Follow-up visits occurred at 4-6 weeks; transarterial chemoembolization was repeated if residual tumor persisted. After transarterial chemoembolization, RA tumor volume reduction was 86% ± 19; α-fetoprotein level showed a reduction of 95%. From RA tumor diagnosis, 3-, 6-, and 12-month overall survival was 100% ± 0, 100% ± 0, and 67% ± 29, respectively. In patients with hepatocellular carcinoma invading the right atrium, transarterial chemoembolization alone or in combination with systemic therapy yields an improved imaging response and may be associated with improved survival.
