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

Lipiodol-based transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is currently the predominant and first-line treatment option recommended by the global standard for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the unstable emulsion of Lipiodol causes a substantial proportion of chemotherapy drugs to enter the circulation system, leading to poor accumulation in cancer tissues and unexpected side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Herein, we emulsified Lipiodol with a pH-sensitive drug delivery system assembled from hexahistidine and zinc ions (HmA) with a super-high loading capacity of doxorubicin (DOX) and a promising ability to penetrate bio-barriers for the effective treatment of HCC by TACE.
