Regorafenib Combined with PD-1 Blockade Immunotherapy versus Regorafenib as Second-Line Treatment for Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Multicenter Retrospective Study.
Article in Journal of hepatocellular carcinoma, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of regorafenib combined with anti-PD-1 antibody sintilimab (rego-sintilimab) as a second-line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: This multicenter retrospective study evaluated consecutive patients with advanced HCC who received rego-sintilimab (rego-sintilimab group) or regorafenib alone (regorafenib group) as a second-line treatment from January 2019 to December 2020. Adverse events, objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared between the two groups. Uni- and multi-variable analyses of prognostic factors for OS and PFS were performed using Cox proportional hazard regression models. Results: In total, 113 patients were included in the study: 58 received rego-sintilimab and 55 received regorafenib. The rego-sintilimab group had higher ORR (36.2% vs 16.4%, Conclusion: Rego-sintilimab was tolerated and led to better OS than regorafenib as a second-line treatment for advanced HCC patients, especially in those with NLR ≤ 3.6.
