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) progression is shaped by crosstalk between the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) and metabolic reprogramming. This study aims to characterize a macrophage-lactylation molecular axis in HCC and to develop a quantitative prognostic stratification model. Using the TCGA-LIHC cohort, differentially expressed genes were intersected with Paeoniflorin (PF)-related targets, HCC disease targets, and macrophage-/lactylation-related genes to identify candidate genes. Prognostic genes were selected through Cox and LASSO-Cox analyses to construct a risk score model, followed by survival analysis and ROC curve evaluation. Immune infiltration was assessed using ESTIMATE and ssGSEA algorithms, and PF-protein binding interactions were explored via molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Intersection analysis identified eight key genes, and prognostic model genes (
