Immunotherapy for uveal melanoma.
Review in Melanoma management, 2016. 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
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare cancer with a high mortality rate. In comparison to cutaneous melanoma, UM has unique immunological features. Arising in the immune suppressive environment of the eye, it maintains immune resistance once metastatic. This is considered a major obstacle for successful immunotherapy in UM. However, a growing body of evidence suggests strategies that may abrogate resistance and enhance antitumor immunity in UM. Recently, three new immune agents have been approved for melanoma. While these drugs demonstrate durable clinical responses with long-term remissions in metastatic cutaneous melanoma, only limited data exist in metastatic UM. In this review, immunological aspects of UM and data from clinical studies of immunotherapeutic agents and regimens for UM will be discussed.
