Prospective Evaluation of Immune Activation Associated with Response to Radioembolization Assessed with PET/CT in Women with Breast Cancer Liver Metastasis.
Article in Radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Background The impact of transarterial radioembolization (TARE) of breast cancer liver metastasis (BCLM) on antitumor immunity is unknown, which hinders the optimal selection of candidates for TARE. Purpose To determine whether response to TARE at PET/CT in participants with BCLM is associated with specific immune markers (cytokines and immune cell populations). Materials and Methods This prospective pilot study enrolled 23 women with BCLM who planned to undergo TARE (June 2018 to February 2020). Peripheral blood and liver tumor biopsies were collected at baseline and 1-2 months after TARE. Monocyte, myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC), interleukin (IL), and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) levels were assessed with use of gene expression studies and flow cytometry, and immune checkpoint and cell surface marker levels with immunohistochemistry. Modified PET Response Criteria in Solid Tumors was used to determine complete response (CR) in treated tissue. After log-transformation, immune marker levels before and after TARE were compared using paired
