Research progress of spontaneous ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma (rHCC) with hemorrhage is characterized by rapid onset and progression. The aim of this systematic review was to explore the current studies on rHCC with hemorrhage and determine the optimum treatment strategy. Method: The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies reporting survival outcomes with comparison between emergency resection (ER) and transarterial embolization following staged hepatectomy (SH) were included by inclusion and exclusion criteria, the perioperative and survival data were statistically summarized using Review Manager 5.3 software. Result: A total of 8 retrospective studies were included, with a total sample size of 556, including 285 (51.3%) in the ER group and 271 (48.7%) in the SH group. The perioperative blood loss and blood transfusion volume in the SH group were less than those in the ER group, and there were no significant differences in the operative time, incidence of complications, mortality and recurrence rate of tumors between the two groups. The 1-, 2-, 3-year overall survival and 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-year disease-free survival of the ER group were not significantly different from those of the SH group, and the 5-year overall survival rate of ER group was lower than that of the SH group (hazard ratios=1.52; 95% confidence intervals: 1.14-2.03, P=0.005). Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the short-term efficacy of ER or SH in the treatment of ruptured HCC, and SH was superior to ER in the long-term survival.
