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

Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) has been used as a marker for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its core fucosylation is associated with the early stage of HCC. However, current methods for the detection of AFP with core fucose are not highly accurate for early diagnosis. In this study, we established an enzyme-assisted mass spectrometric method for the quantitative analysis of AFP/core fucose with high specificity and sensitivity. We employed endoglycosidase treatment of AFP to improve the biomarker analysis. The accuracy and precision are within the US FDA-suggested value, and a good linearity (
