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

The application of trans-arterial radioembolization (TARE) with Yttrium-90, historically a palliative treatment option for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is evolving. Radiation segmentectomy (RADSEG), the segmental delivery of an ablative radiation dose, is a treatment option for patients with earlier-stage HCC. This review presents an in-depth exploration of RADSEG, emphasizing its technical considerations, dosimetry advancements, and patient selection. The integration of RADSEG into the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) paradigm will be highlighted. RADSEG outcomes concerning safety and efficacy will be explored and compared with traditional locoregional cancer treatments like trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE), percutaneous thermal ablation, and surgical resection, with an eye on future directions and considerations.
