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

This study aims to identify and analyze the factors that affect tumor volume doubling time (TVDT) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and evaluate how these factors impact progression-free survival. We performed a retrospective study on 183 confirmed cases of HCC at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2023. We utilized 3D Slicer 5.1.0 to segment the region of interest slice by slice. Then, we calculated the tumor volume using the segment statistics. We calculated the TVDT using the equation: TVDT = [(T - T
