1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 of reviewNuclear medicine has the potential to explore and illuminate several pathways in breast cancer (BC) offering different radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) designed to target specific tumor characteristics. The aim of this critical review is to give an overview about emerging opportunities in PET imaging, underlining the future potential contribution in the management of BC patients. RECENT

findingsBeside 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]-fluoro- d -glucose (FDG), new generation tracers for PET imaging have been recently proposed to investigate specific characteristics in breast cancer, both targeting tumor cells and the tumor micro-environment (TME). SUMMARY: FDG-PET is a procedure that received extensive clinical validation. However, its role in BC is still suboptimal due to the low-FDG avidity of specific tumor subtypes. Human epidermal growth receptor-2 and integrin targeted PET radiotracers might provide useful information selecting patients more likely to respond to target therapy. FluoroEstradiol (FES) is a FDA-approved PET radiotracer targeting the estrogen receptor (ER), useful to investigate metastatic ER+ patients, to assess in vivo ER heterogeneity and to evaluate hormonal therapy efficacy. Inhibitors of the fibroblast activation protein (FAPi) targeting the cancer-associated fibroblast can explore the TME with PET imaging. FAPi is also proposed a theranostic agent for radio-ligand therapy.
