Clinical Applications of Liquid Biopsy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients: Current Status and Recent Advances in Clinical Practice.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Recent advances in targeted and immune therapies have enabled tailored treatment strategies for advanced lung cancer. Identifying and understanding the genomic alterations that arise in the course of tumor evolution has become hugely valuable, but tissue biopsies are often insufficient for representing the whole cancer genome due to tumor heterogeneity. A liquid biopsy refers to the isolation and analysis of any tumor-derived material in the blood, and recent studies of this material have mostly focused on cell-free tumor DNA (ctDNA) in plasma. Indeed, liquid biopsy analysis is now expected to expand in utility and scope in clinical practice. In this review, we assess the biology and technical aspects of ctDNA analysis and discuss how it is currently applied in the clinic. Key points: Liquid biopsy is a potentially powerful tool in the era of personalized medicine for guiding targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer.
