Prognostic Implications of PET-Derived Tumor Volume and Uptake in Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors.
Review in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Historically, molecular imaging of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) expression in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) was performed using SSTR scintigraphy (SRS). Sustained advances in medical imaging have led to its gradual replacement with SSTR positron-emission tomography (SSTR-PET). The higher sensitivity in comparison to SRS on the one hand and conventional cross-sectional imaging, on the other hand, enables more accurate staging and allows for image quantification. In addition, in recent years, a growing body of evidence has assessed the prognostic implications of SSTR-PET-derived prognostic biomarkers for NET patients, with the aim of risk stratification, outcome prognostication, and prediction of response to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy. In this narrative review, we give an overview of studies examining the prognostic value of advanced SSTR-PET-derived (semi-)quantitative metrics like tumor volume, uptake, and composite metrics. Complementing this analysis, a discussion of the current trends, clinical implications, and future directions is provided.
