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: Primary live cancer (PLC), including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). This meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of blood methylated septin 9 gene ( Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search across PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), covering research up to May 10, 2024. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratios, and area under the summary receiver operating characteristic (AUC) were calculated for the diagnostic performance of Results: Ten articles with 2,182 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled sensitivity of Conclusions: This study confirmed that Systematic review registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier CRD42024549669.
