Circulating tumour cell counts and ultrasomics signature-based nomogram for preoperative prediction of early recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radical treatment.
Article in The British journal of radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
methodsBetween December 2017 and December 2018, 153 HCC patients (134 males and 19 females; mean age, 56.0 ± 10.2 years; range, 28-78 years) treated with radical therapy were enrolled in our retrospective study and were divided into a training cohort (

conclusionThe nomogram incorporating CTC, ultrasomics features and independent clinical risk factors achieved satisfactory preoperative prediction of ER in HCC patients after radical treatment. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: 1. CTC status and ultrasomics score were identified as independent predictors associated with ER of HCC after radical treatment. 2. The nomogram constructed by ultrasomics score generated by 17 ultrasomics features, combined with CTCs and independent clinical risk factors such as AFP and tumour size. 3. The nomogram exhibited satisfactory discriminative power, and could be clinically useful in the preoperative prediction of ER after radical treatment in HCC patients.
