Article in Der Internist, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recent years have seen dramatic changes in the biological understanding and treatment of solid tumors. Based on the tumor biology, targeting agents have been developed which directly affect the underlying genetic or immunological changes found in specific tumor entities. Significant increases in survival have delivered the functional proof of the concept of targeted and immunological tumor therapy. The management and adherence of the patient as well as optimized cooperation with clinicians are decisive for the results of therapy and disease control.Several solid tumors are currently under investigation in clinical studies evaluating the (sequential) therapy with targeting and immunologically active agents, e.g. tyrosine kinase and mTOR inhibitors, targeting antibodies, such as bevacizumab, specific antagonists, such as enzalutamide and immunological checkpoint inhibitors via PD(L)1 and/or CTLA 4 antibodies.Currently approved agents have dramatically changed the landscape of treatment options especially for prostate cancer. Such agents include hormone therapy with enzalutamide and abiraterone, radiotherapy with cabazitaxel and xofigo (radium 223), metastatic breast cancer (eribulin and everolimus), renal cell carcinoma (sunitinib, sorafenib, axitinib, everolimus and temsirolimus), non-small cell lung cancer (crizotinib and afatinib), colorectal cancer and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (regorafenib) and melanoma (ipilimumab and vemurafenib). The treatment of rarer tumors, such as pancreatic and hepatocellular cancer and soft tissue sarcoma has entered the stage of targeted therapy with the approval of nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel, sorafenib, and eribulin/pazopanib. Current clinical trials are focusing on the best time point and sequence of therapy and also improvement in the management of these promising agents.
