Comprehensive review and updated analysis of DNA methylation in hepatocellular carcinoma: From basic research to clinical application.
Review in Clinical and translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary malignant tumour, ranking second in global mortality rates and posing significant health threats. Epigenetic alterations, particularly DNA methylation, have emerged as pivotal factors associated with HCC diagnosis, therapy, prognosis and malignant progression. However, a comprehensive analysis of the DNA methylation mechanism driving HCC progression and its potential as a therapeutic biomarker remains lacking. This review attempts to comprehensively summarise various aspects of DNA methylation, such as its mechanism, detection methods and biomarkers aiding in HCC diagnosis, treatment and prognostic assessment of HCC. It also explores the role of DNA methylation in regulating HCC's malignant progression and sorafenib resistance, alongside elaborating the therapeutic effects of DNA methyltransferase inhibitors on HCC. A detailed examination of these aspects underscores the significant research on DNA methylation in tumour cells to elucidate malignant progression mechanisms, identify diagnostic markers and develop new tumour-specific inhibitors for HCC. KEY POINTS: A comprehensive summary of various aspects of DNA methylation, such as its mechanism, detection methods and biomarkers aiding in diagnosis and treatment. The role of DNA methylation in regulating hepatocellular carcinoma's (HCC) malignant progression and sorafenib resistance, alongside elaborating therapeutic effects of DNA methyltransferase inhibitors. Deep research on DNA methylation is critical for discovering novel tumour-specific inhibitors for HCC.
