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

Despite the advent of immune checkpoint inhibitor-based regimens, sorafenib remains an important therapeutic option for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are ineligible for immunotherapy. However, its clinical efficacy is limited by the emergence of drug resistance, whose underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. To investigate these mechanisms, we established a murine model of acquired sorafenib resistance and performed comparative RNA sequencing of sorafenib-sensitive versus -resistant Hep55.1C hepatoma cells. Transcriptomic profiling revealed a distinct resistance-associated signature comprising 1264 significantly deregulated genes (adjusted
