Extrahepatic transarterial radioembolization to treat fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FL-HCC) is a rare primary liver tumor that typically presents at an advanced stage in early adolescents and adults with no underlying liver disease. Surgical resection is the first-line treatment, and patients who are not surgical candidates face limited treatment options with poor long-term outcomes. Herein we report the first documented, technically successful treatment of FL-HCC with extrahepatic spread using transarterial radioembolization (TARE) in a 16-year-old male patient with surgically unresectable disease. Subsequent imaging revealed tumor necrosis and a 20% reduction in size, and the patient survived 20 months post-treatment, a marked improvement relative to historical data in the literature. Further research should examine the potential role of yttrium-90 TARE in the treatment of FL-HCC patients with metastatic disease.
