1. Abstract 1.1. Background: Colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) that cannot be surgically removed are often addressed locally with Hepatic Arterial Infusion (HAI) or Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT). This study used Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) to assess the differences in survival between patients treated with HAI or SIRT for CRLM.

*2021 Journal unofficial Impact Factor was established by dividing the number of articles published in 2020 with the number of times they are cited in 2021 based on Google Scholar Citation Index database. If ‘X’ is the total number of articles published in 2020 and ‘Y’ is the number of times these articles were cited in indexed journals during 2021 then, journal impact factor = Y/X.
