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

introductionThe genomic characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after a sustained virological response (SVR) and its differences according to whether an SVR was achieved by treatment with direct-acting antivirals (DAA) or interferon (IFN) are still not fully understood.

methodsSixty-nine surgically resected HCCs from patients with hepatitis C virus infection were analyzed by gene expression profiling and whole-exome sequencing.

resultsAmong the 69 HCC patients, 34 HCCs in which an SVR was not achieved at the time of surgery were classified as HCV-positive, and 35 HCCs in which an SVR was achieved at the time of surgery were classified as HCV-SVR. According to the HCV treatment, 35 HCV-SVR HCCs were classified into two groups: eight tumors with DAA (HCV-SVR-DAA) and 24 tumors with interferon (HCV-SVR-IFN). The frequency of samples with ARID2 mutations was significantly lower in HCV-SVR than in HCV-positive tumors (p = 0.048). In contrast, the frequency of samples with PREX2 mutations was significantly higher in HCV-SVR samples than in HCV-positive samples (p = 0.048). Among the patients with HCV-SVR, the frequency of samples with TP53 mutations was significantly higher in HCV-SVR-DAA tumors than in HCV-SVR-IFN tumors (p = 0.030). TP53 inactivation scores in HCV-SVR-DAA tumors were found to be significantly enhanced in comparison to HCV-SVR-IFN tumors (p = 0.022). In addition, chromosomal instability and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway signatures were enhanced in HCV-SVR-DAA tumors. HCV-SVR-DAA was significantly associated with portal vein invasion (p = 0.003) in comparison to HCV-SVR-IFN.

conclusionOur dataset potentially serves as a fundamental resource for the genomic characteristics of HCV-SVR-DAA tumors. Our comprehensive genetic profiling by WES revealed significant differences in the mutation rate of several driver genes between HCV-positive tumors and HCV-SVR tumors. Furthermore, it was revealed that the frequency of samples with mutations in TP53 was significantly higher in HCV-SVR-DAA tumors than in HCV-SVR-IFN tumors.
