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) is a major global health challenge, with poor prognosis for advanced patients. Centromere proteins (CENPs) play a critical role in maintaining genomic stability. To investigate the characteristics of CENPs in HCC and elucidate the mechanisms by which CENPs regulate HCC progression through interactive molecular networks, this review aims to provide new insights into HCC mechanisms and targeted therapies. Therefore, we retrieved peer-reviewed original research articles or reviews from the PubMed database, focusing on the current research status of CENPs in HCC, and detailed the expression levels of CENPs in HCC tissues, patient survival, clinicopathological features, immune infiltration, and intermolecular mechanisms. The study found that aberrant expression of CENPs has been confirmed to be significantly associated with HCC patient survival, clinicopathological characteristics, and tumor microenvironment immune infiltration. CENPs regulate HCC cell proliferation, invasion, migration, cell death, angiogenesis, and glycolysis through complex interactive molecular networks. This review provides valuable insights for basic research, the development of HCC biomarkers, and the research and development of targeted drugs.
