Portal vein tumor thrombosis in hepatocellular carcinoma patients: Is it the end?
Review in Liver research (Beijing, China), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most prevalent form of cancer globally and the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. The incidence of portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) in HCC patients is 21% at one year and 46% at three years. The presence of PVTT has consistently been associated with a poor prognosis for HCC patients over the past decades. Notably, HCC prognosis is influenced not only by the presence of PVTT but also by the degree or extent of PVTT. Currently, there is a lack of global consensus or established protocols regarding the optimal management of HCC with associated PVTT. The Barcelona Clinic for Liver Cancer classifies HCC patients with PVTT as stage C, indicating an advanced stage, and limiting treatment recommendations for these patients to systemic therapy. In recent years, there has been an increase in the availability of therapeutic options for HCC patients with PVTT. Treatment modalities include systemic therapy, transarterial chemoembolization, surgical resection, stereotactic body radiotherapy, transarterial radioembolization, and liver transplantation. An ideal therapy for each patient necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. This review article presents the latest updates in managing HCC patients with PVTT.
