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

backgroundThe prognostic impact of preoperative gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase to platelet ratio (GPR) levels in patients with solitary hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following radical resection has not been established.

aimTo examine the clinical utility of GPR for prognosis prediction in solitary HBV-related HCC patients.

methodsA total of 1167 solitary HBV-related HCC patients were retrospectively analyzed. GPR levels were compared with 908 non-HCC individuals. Overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were evaluated, and cox proportional hazard model analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors. Differences in characteristics were adjusted by propensity score matching (PSM). Subgroup and stratified survival analyses for HCC risks were performed, and a linear trend of the hazard ratio (HR) according to GPR levels was constructed.

resultsGPR levels of patients with solitary HBV-related HCC were higher than those with hepatic hemangiomas, chronic hepatitis B and healthy control (adjusted

conclusionPreoperative GPR can serve as a noninvasive indicator to predict the prognosis of patients with solitary HBV-related HCC.
