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

The development of an effective therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents an important global concern. In recent years, the combination of multiple treatment methods with immunotherapy has achieved great progress in patients with advanced HCC. Patient survival has been significantly prolonged, but cases of complete response (CR) remain rare. Here, we report two cases in which CR was achieved by radiofrequency ablation combined with an oncolytic virus (recombinant human adenovirus type 5) and anti-programmed cell death protein 1 antibody. Additionally, a literature review is presented to describe similar advancements in this field and explore viable methods for the treatment of advanced HCC.
