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

Liver cancer is a common malignancy worldwide, with a poor prognosis and a high recurrence rate despite the available treatment methodologies. Tumor-treating fields (TTFields) have shown good preclinical and clinical results for improving the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma and malignant pleural mesothelioma. However, there is minimal evidence for the effect of TTFields on other cancer types. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of TTFields in an
