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) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, and internal radionuclide therapy is an important locoregional option for unresectable disease. This review summarizes the current landscape of transarterial radionuclide therapy for HCC and, as a translational perspective, considers how the carrier, radionuclide, and dosimetry concepts established in HCC may extend to secondary liver tumors (liver metastases). It begins with established transarterial radioembolization (TARE/selective internal radiation therapy, SIRT) using yttrium-90 (
