Immunotherapeutics at the spearhead: current status in targeting neuroendocrine neoplasms.
Synthesis in Endocrine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeRecent advances in the field of immunotherapy have significantly prolonged the survival of patients with aggressive carcinomas, but the role of immunotherapy in neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) remains to be elucidated. METHODS AND
resultsWe report a patient diagnosed with a well-differentiated grade 3 pancreatic NEN (pNEN) and type 3 liver metastases who received compassionate nivolumab as a fifth line treatment and achieved a durable partial response of more than 34 months. We have performed a systematic review to the literature on tumor microenvironment and potential biomarkers in the field of NEN including the tumor mutational burden, the tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, the programmed cell death ligand 1, and the mismatch repair system. The potential role of the immune system modulation together with a critical assessment of the recent phase II clinical studies in NEN including monotherapy with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies, and combination therapies including anti-PD-1 along with anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibodies are also provided.
conclusionImmunotherapeutics are gaining a post in the field of NENs in cases progressing during the course of the disease, dictating urgently the identification of biomarkers that will enable selection of NEN patients who may benefit from this treatment.
