Role of Liver Function in the Multiparametric Assessment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Liver function plays a pivotal role in the management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Consequently, managing HCC requires a dual focus on both tumour staging and liver function assessment to guide therapeutic decisions. Comprehensive liver function evaluation involves clinical tools such as the Child-Pugh classification and the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score. This is supplemented by newer metrics, including the MELD-Na score, the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade and liver stiffness measurements. These assessments are integral to tailoring treatments, ranging from curative approaches such as surgical resection and liver transplantation to locoregional options (percutaneous ablation, transarterial chemoembolisation and radioembolisation), and systemic therapies. This review explores strategies for balancing the aggressiveness of cancer therapy with the need to preserve hepatic function, particularly in patients with advanced liver dysfunction. A multidisciplinary approach, incorporating expertise from hepatology, oncology, radiology and surgery, is essential for optimising outcomes. Advanced imaging techniques and biochemical markers also improve decision-making and ensure individualised care.
