Association of concomitant MASLD and hepatitis B virus with clinical prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection.
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The term "metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease" (MASLD) was introduced to replace the term "nonalcoholic fatty liver disease". The prevalence of MASLD is increasing worldwide. The prevalence of concomitant MASLD and hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is also increasing. This study explored the effect of the coexistence of MASLD and HBV on clinicopathological features and long-term clinical prognoses in patients with MASLD-related and/or HBV-related HCC after curative hepatectomy. The study retrospectively collected the data of 653 patients with HCC who had undergone curative hepatectomy between 2011 and 2022. We assessed the association of histologically confirmed MASLD with HCC recurrence and mortality. Of 653 patients, 320 (49.0%), 103 (15.8%), and 230 (35.2%) had concomitant MASLD and HBV, MASLD only, and HBV only, respectively. The median follow-up period was 5.1 years. Patients with concomitant MASLD and HBV were at a significantly increased risk of HCC recurrence (
