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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Radiotherapy technology is a common treatment modality that can be used in all stages of HCC. However, in some cases, radiotherapy fails in clinical practice mainly because of the patient's resistance to radiotherapy, creating a bottleneck for future breakthroughs. HCC radiosensitivity is primarily related to DNA double-strand break repair, cellular autophagy, cell cycle, cellular metabolism, and hypoxic environmental regulators. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of its molecular mechanisms will be of immense importance in reversing HCC radioresistance. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanism of action of radiotherapy on HCC, the cellular and molecular basis of radiation resistance in HCC, related treatment modalities, and future prospects.
