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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesCombined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-ICC) is a rare malignancy that involves a combination of features of hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and exhibits a more aggressive clinical course; however, its risk factors and outcomes remain largely undefined.

methodsThis study is a single-center retrospective study of 82 patients diagnosed with ICC or cHCC-ICC who underwent surgical resection from June 2011 to January 2023. Our analysis included 70 patients with resected ICC and 12 with resected cHCC-ICC.

resultsThe overall survival (OS) for the entire cohort was 21.6 months, with a recurrence-free survival (RFS) of 11.8 months. The cHCC-ICC group had significantly higher levels of AST and ALT (AST median 206 U/L vs. 46 U/L; ALT median 165.5 U/L vs. 48 U/L;

conclusionscHCC-ICC is a rare entity that needs to be further studied to improve patient outcomes. Further studies are warranted and may suggest the need for more aggressive initial treatment strategies in patients diagnosed with cHCC-ICC.
