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.

Abstract

backgroundLarge hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment options have obvious limitations. Our trial comprises ipsilateral hepatic artery ligation and extrahepatic collaterals division (HALED, reinforced by percutaneous tumor injection controlling residual HCC arterial supply. We aimed to evaluate the long term safety and feasibility of the Combined Surgical and Injection of alcohol Treatment (COSIT) as a novel therapy for the large HCC. MATERIAL AND

methodsCandidates' clinical data of the of this case series were prospectively and sequentially reported in accordance with stage 2a development IDEAL (Idea, Development, Exploration, Assessment and Long-term monitoring) recommendations. It included adult patients with HCC (diameter >5 cm) subjected to COSIT coming to our center during a five years' trial evaluating the long term outcome measures. Study ID (NCT03138044 ClinicalTrials.gov).

resultsPatients were 21, their mean age (±standard deviation) was 61·9 (±9·3) years. Eleven (52.4%) patients had tumors diameter >10 cm. 17 (80.9%) patients were advanced BCLC stage. Six modifications were made in this injection phase till it came to a stability. The mean alcohol volume was 72.0 mls. The mean follow-up duration was 16 months. The median overall survival duration was 14 months. The one, three and five years' survival was 71.4%, 23.8% and 4.8%, respectively. Grade 3/4 and 4 Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects (v4.03) were encountered in 10 (47.6%) and one (4.8%) patients, respectively.

conclusionThis preliminary findings of COSIT can be a promising alternative treatment for patients having large HCC. Consequently, a multicenter stage 2b Exploration IDEAL trial is suggested.
