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

Orthotopic models of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) consist in the implantation of tumor cells into the liver by direct intrahepatic injection. In this model, tumorigenesis is triggered within the hepatic microenvironment, thus mimicking the metastatic behavior of HCC. Herein, we detail a surgically mediated methodology that allows the reproducible and effective induction of liver-sessile tumors in mice. We enumerate the steps to be followed before and after the surgical procedure, including HCC cell preparation, the quantity of cancer cells to be injected, presurgical preparation of the mice, and finally, postoperative care. The surgical procedure involves laparotomy to expose the liver, injection of cells into the left-lateral hepatic lobe, and closure of the incision with sutures followed by wound clips. We also provide information concerning the subsequent tumor growth follow-up, as well as the application of bioluminescence imaging to monitor tumor development.
