Cholangiocarcinoma: the role of genetic and epigenetic factors; current and prospective treatment with checkpoint inhibitors and immunotherapy.
Review in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) represents 3% of all gastrointestinal cancers worldwide and is the second most common primary liver tumor after hepatocellular carcinoma. CCA is an aggressive tumor that involves the intrahepatic, perihilar and distal biliary tree, with a poor prognosis and an increasing incidence worldwide. Various genetic and epigenetic factors have been implicated in CCA development. Gene mutations involving apoptosis control and cell cycle evolution, histone modifications, methylation dysregulation and abnormal expression of non-coding RNA are the most important of these factors. Regarding treatment, surgical resection, cisplatin and gemcitabine have long been the most common treatment options, but 5-year survival (7-20%) is disappointing. For that reason, inhibitors and small molecules related to specific mutations and molecular pathways have been introduced. Among them, immunotherapy seems to be a promising treatment in CCA, with multiple regimens being under clinical trial studies. The combinatorial therapy of traditional CCA treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and/or immunotherapy seem to be the future, depending on the molecular profile of each patient's tumor.
