Metabolic characteristics in hepatocellular carcinoma: amino acid metabolic reprogramming.
Review in Molecular cancer, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 a common type of primary liver cancer and is considered the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The high aggressiveness and resistance to therapies exhibited by HCC present significant challenges to global public health. As the primary metabolic organ in the human body, the liver undergoes substantial metabolic reprogramming during carcinogenesis, affecting various metabolic pathways including those involved in carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids. Notably, disruptions in amino acid metabolism play a critical role in the initiation and progression of HCC, helping to sustain its malignant characteristics. This review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the alterations observed in aromatic amino acids metabolism, branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) metabolism, glutamine metabolism, and other amino acid metabolism processes, including serine, arginine, and methionine, along with the expression patterns of associated metabolic enzymes. Furthermore, it discusses potential therapeutic approaches and their clinical relevance, offering insights and strategies for improving HCC diagnosis and treatment in the future.
