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

Sarcopenia, serving as a surrogate for frailty, is clinically significant in liver resection (LR) for elderly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Our study aims to assess sarcopenia's impact, measured by Psoas Muscle Index (PMI), on postoperative outcomes. We retrospectively studied patients aged ≥ 60 years who underwent LR for HCC between 2014 and 2018. PMI, derived from preoperative CT scans, and Textbook Outcome (TO) for LR were assessed. A nomogram predicting overall survival (OS) was developed via multivariable analysis. Of the 149 eligible HCC patients, the median PMI was 7.225 cm
