Comparison of Efficacy and Safety of TACE Combined with Microwave Ablation and TACE Combined with Cryoablation in the Treatment of Large Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Computational intelligence and neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of TACE combined with microwave ablation (MWA) and TACE combined with cryoablation (CRA) in the treatment of large hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 81 patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma (tumor diameter 5～8 cm cm) who received TACE combined with ablation in our hospital from February 2015 to February 2019. The study patients were divided into TACE combined with MWA group (T-MWA, Results: There was no statistical difference in general conditions between the two groups of patients. The results showed that 30 (73.2%) patients in T-MWA group achieved objective response (OR) and 39 (95.1%) patients achieved disease control (DC), compared with 24 (60.0%) patients in T-CRA group who achieved objective response (OR) and 37 (92.5%) patients who achieved disease control (DC). The median OS was 19.2 months in the T-MWA group and 18.6 months in the T-CRA group ( Conclusion: TACE combined with MWA and TACE combined with CRA were equally effective in the treatment of large hepatocellular carcinoma. TACE-CRA can effectively reduce the incidence of abdominal pain and gastrointestinal reactions in patients. However, compared with TACE-MWA, TACE-CRA is more likely to cause thrombocytopenia.
