Complete Remission of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma in a Patient With Ulcerative Colitis Treated With Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
In this case study, a 73-year-old man who had previously undergone colectomy had a history of ulcerative colitis and alcohol abuse and presented with fatigue, weight loss, and a liver lesion. After a biopsy, he was diagnosed with stage IV-A hepatocellular carcinoma with poor differentiation and cirrhotic architecture, and molecular testing revealed positivity for multiple genes. A combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab was administered, resulting in complete remission lasting beyond 16 months, demonstrating the potential of these drugs as a treatment option for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The patient's history of autoimmune conditions could have contributed to his robust response to the treatment. The report highlights the sustained survival benefits of this treatment beyond month 16.
