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: The hepatic metabolism of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis (HCCC) may differ from that of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) without cirrhosis, limiting the clinical individualized dosing regimens for these patients. Microsomal protein per gram of liver (MPPGL) is an important scaling factor for physiologically based pharmacokinetic models, but data in patients with HCCC are limited. The study aims to determine the content of MPPGL in patients with HCCC and to guide individualized clinical dosing of patients with HCCC using Methods: The microsomal protein content was determined in liver samples of patients with HCCC (n=48) and in normal liver samples (n=68). The activity of 10 cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms at the microsomal protein level (CL Results: The median value of MPPGL was significantly lower in patients with HCCC (28.35 mg/g) than in the controls (37.65 mg/g) (P=0.008). In patients with HCCC as compared to controls, the CL Conclusions: In patients with HCCC, MPPGL content was significantly reduced, and a variable change in the activity of 10 CYP was observed in microsomes. When taking individual MPPGL into account, CL
