Landmark mediation survival analysis using longitudinal surrogate.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Clinical cancer trials are designed to collect radiographic measurements of each patient's baseline and residual tumor burden at regular intervals over the course of study. For solid tumors, the extent of reduction in tumor size following treatment is used as a measure of a drug's antitumor activity. Statistical estimation of treatment efficacy routinely reduce the longitudinal assessment of tumor burden to a binary outcome describing the presence versus absence of an objective tumor response as defined by RECIST criteria. The objective response rate (ORR) is the predominate method for evaluating an experimental therapy in a single-arm trial. Additionally, ORR is routinely compared against a control therapy in phase III randomized controlled trials. The longitudinal assessments of tumor burden are seldom integrated into a formal statistical model, nor integrated into mediation analysis to characterize the relationships among treatment, residual tumor burden, and survival. This article presents a frameworkfor landmark mediation survival analyses devised to incorporate longitudinal assessment of tumor burden.
