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

Purpose: To investigate the effect of different liver resection modalities on the prognosis of left lateral lobe hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Methods: 315 patients with HCC on left lateral lobe were divided into open left lateral lobectomy (LLL) group (n=249) and open left hepatectomy (LH) group (n=66). The differences in long-term prognosis between two groups were compared. Results: The results showed that narrow resection margin (Hazard Ratio (HR):1.457, 95% Confidential Interval (CI): 1.038-2.047; HR:1.415, 95% CI: 1.061-1.887), tumor diameter > 5 cm (1.645, 1.161-2.330; 1.488, 1.123-1.971), multiple tumors (2.021, 1.330-3.073; 1.987, 1.380-2.861), and microvascular invasion (MVI) (1.753, 1.253-2.452; 1.438, 1.087-1.902) are independent risk factors for overall survival (OS) and tumor recurrence (TR), while liver resection modality is not. After propensity score matching, liver resection modality is not an independent risk factor for OS and TR. Further analysis revealed that wide resection margins were achieved in all patients in the LH group but only 59.0% patients in the LLL group. The OS and TR rates were not significantly different between wide patients with resection margins in LLL group and LH group (P=0.766 and 0.919, respectively), but significantly different between patients with narrow resection margins in LLL group and LH group (P=0.012 and 0.017, respectively). Conclusion: Liver resection modality is not an independent risk factor for the prognosis of patients with HCC on the left lateral lobe as long as wide margins are obtained. Nevertheless, with narrow margins, patients who underwent LH rather than LLL did better.
