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

Metastasis is a fatal status for liver cancer, and the identification of an effective prediction model and promising therapeutic target is essential. Given the known relationship between fatty acid (FA) metabolism and the liver, the present study aimed to investigate dysregulation of genes associated with FA metabolism in liver cancer. Bioinformatics analyses were performed on data from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database using R software packages. Online public tools such as the Human Protein Atlas, Tumor Immune Single-Cell Hub and the University of Alabama at Birmingham Cancer Data Analysis portal were also utilized. Some essential results were further verified using
