Effect of genetic polymorphisms of interleukin-1 beta on the microscopic portal vein invasion and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in Journal of hepato-biliary-pancreatic sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundSeveral studies have demonstrated a relationship between genetic polymorphisms of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and cancer development; however, their influence on cancer prognosis is unknown. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of IL-1β single nucleotide polymorphisms on the hematogenous dissemination and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study including patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent primary liver resection at our hospital between April 2015 and December 2018. The primary endpoints were overall and recurrence-free survival. Secondary endpoints were microscopic portal vein invasion and number of circulating tumor cells.
resultsA total of 148 patients were included, 32 with rs16944 A/A genotype. A/A genotype was associated with microscopic portal vein invasion and number of circulating tumor cells (p = .03 and .04). In multivariate analysis, A/A genotype, alpha-fetoprotein level, and number of circulating tumor cells were associated with microscopic portal vein invasion (p = .01, .01, and <.01). A/A genotype, Child-Pugh B, and intraoperative blood loss were independent predictive factors for overall survival (p = .02, <.01, and <.01).
conclusionsOur results indicate that the IL-1β rs16944 A/A genotype is involved in number of circulating tumor cells, microscopic portal vein invasion, and prognosis in HCC.
