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

Introduction: Patients with hepatitis virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (viral HCC) are decreasing as hepatitis control improves, but those with non-viral-related HCC (non-viral HCC) are increasing in Japan. No established surveillance system exists for patients with non-viral HCC, so they are often diagnosed at an advanced stage. To address this, we performed this study. Methods: We collected serum samples from 516 participants (154 healthy subjects, 93 chronic liver disease [CLD] patients without HCC, and 269 HCC patients). Participants were divided into a control group comprising healthy subjects and patients with CLD and an HCC group. We evaluated serum methylated Results: Serum m- Conclusions: We showed distinguished performance of the ASDAm-H1 index to detect viral and non-viral HCC, even at an early stage. This index might have potential as a non-viral HCC surveillance system.
