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

Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by extensive epigenetic alterations, particularly DNA methylation. Through integrated multi-omics analysis, we identified methylation-driven genes in HCC, including PHYHD1-a previously understudied candidate whose role in hepatocarcinogenesis remains unexplored. This study aimed to validate and functionally characterize PHYHD1 in HCC. Methods: Five pairs of HCC and adjacent non-tumor tissues were analyzed using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), RNA-seq, and TMT-based proteomics. We identified 97,523 differentially methylated regions (DMRs), 875 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and 225 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). Results: Integration of methylome, transcriptome, and proteome data revealed 19 consistently altered genes enriched in metabolic pathways. Discussion: Integrated multi-omics analysis identified
