Albi score predicts overall survival (OS) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT).
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeWe aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of baseline clinical features and treatment procedure, including liver function measured with albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) formula and dosing methods in HCC patients treated with SIRT. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study includes 82 consecutive patients with liver-dominant HCC treated with SIRT (
resultsMedian follow-up after treatment was 40.0 months (15.2-67.9). At univariable analysis, ALBI score and bilirubin levels were found to be independent prognostic factors for survival after SIRT (p = 0.001, respectively); furthermore, at Cox proportional hazards analysis, HR for death of ALBI 2 versus ALBI 1 was 10.54 (95% CI, 1.42-78.19, p = 0.021), while despite not significant, HR in patients with bilirubin levels over 1.1 mg/dl was 2.67 (0.75-9.44, p = 0.118). Conversely, no significant association was found between OS and cirrhosis, tumor size and PVT.
conclusionALBI score demonstrated to impact OS in HCC patients treated with SIRT thus going beyond a simple prediction of treatment-related toxicity. The present results are relevant for the selection of HCC patients for SIRT in a real-world clinical setting.
