A nomogram for predicting the risk of postoperative recurrence of hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with high preoperative serum glutamyl transpeptidase.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Recurrence is a major risk factor affecting the postoperative survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), especially those with high preoperative serum γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) levels. This study had the aim of developing a personalized predictive tool to accurately determine the risk of postoperative recurrence of hepatitis B-virus (HBV)-related HCC in patients with high preoperative serum GGT levels. Methods: Patients who underwent curative liver resection of HBV-related HCC and had high preoperative GGT levels were consecutively enrolled between 2008 and 2011. Prognostic indicators for recurrence were determined using Cox regression analysis. A nomogram was then developed and assessed by integrating the independent risk factors into the model. Results: A total of 603 eligible patients were included. The final nomogram for predicting HCC recurrence in patients with high preoperative GGT levels consisted of five independent prognostic factors: α-fetoprotein (AFP), HBV-DNA, satellite nodules, microvascular invasion, and tumor grade. The C-index of the nomogram for predicting recurrence was 0.759, and validation showed high accuracy and discriminatory. Conclusions: The predictive nomogram developed and validated in this study performs well in predicting postoperative recurrence of HBV-related HCC in patients with high preoperative GGT levels. It can provide personalized assessments to inform the development of surveillance strategies and allows patients with a high risk of recurrence to be selected for further adjuvant treatment.
