Microwave ablation and synchronous transarterial chemoembolization combined with PD-1 inhibitor in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma following tyrosine kinase inhibitor intolerance.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Purpose: To determine the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) and synchronous transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with or without PD-1 inhibitor in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) intolerance. Materials and methods: This study retrospectively enrolled TKI-intolerant HCC patients who underwent MWA-TACE combined with PD-1 inhibitor (MTP) or MWA-TACE (MT) from January 2019 to June 2021. MWA and TACE were performed simultaneously, and PD-1 inhibitor was administered intravenously at a dose of 200 mg once every three weeks after MWA-TACE. Adverse events (AEs) related to treatment were recorded during the follow-up. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 87 patients were included and classified into the MTP group (n =42) and MT group (n=45). Complications related to MWA-TACE in the MTP group were similar to that in the MT group (21.4% vs. 24.4%, Conclusion: MWA and synchronous TACE combined with PD-1 inhibitor might be a favorable treatment option in TKI-intolerant HCC patients.
