Advances in Pharmacotherapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A State-of-the-Art Review.
Review in Digestive diseases (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundDue to the number of emerging new treatment options, the systemic treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is rapidly changing. We provide here an overview of the current landscape of systemic treatment of HCC and discuss its potential future development. SUMMARY: HCC is a leading cause of tumor-related death worldwide. Despite the efforts aimed at reducing the prevalence of HCC through vaccination and antiviral treatment, and the implementation of screening programs for early tumor detection, most patients are diagnosed with or progress to advanced HCC. For approximately 10 years, sorafenib has been the only effective systemic treatment available for these patients. Recently, however, a number of new systemic compounds, comprising several multi-kinase inhibitors and immune-checkpoint inhibitors, have been approved for treatment of HCC. These new agents are opening a plethora of therapeutic options for the future therapy of HCC. KEY MESSAGES: The rapid progress in the treatment of HCC raises the question of the optimal combination and sequence of these agents in the treatment of patients with advanced disease. The substantial improvements in terms of objective response and survival indicate that the use of immune-checkpoint inhibitors-based treatment combinations may be extended to patients with intermediate-stage HCC.
