Metabolic Tumor Volume Measured by
Article in Journal of hepatocellular carcinoma, 2023. 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: The combination of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and molecular targeted agents showed promising efficacy for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC). This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of metabolic parameters from Patients and Methods: Patients with uHCC treated with a combination of immunotherapy and targeted therapy who underwent baseline Results: Seventy-seven patients were finally included. The median OS was 16.8 months. We found that a high MTV (≥39.65 cm Conclusion: High MTV is an adverse prognostic factor in patients with uHCC treated with a combination of immunotherapy and molecular targeted agents. Integrating PET/CT parameters with clinical prognostic factors could help to personalize immunotherapy.
