1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are commonly used to treat patients with advanced urothelial cancer. However, a significant number of patients do not respond to ICI, and the lack of validated predictive biomarkers impedes the success of the ICI strategy alone or in combination with chemotherapy or targeted therapies. In addition, some patients experience potentially severe adverse events with limited clinical benefit. Therefore, identifying biomarkers of response to ICI is crucial to guide treatment decisions. The most evaluated biomarkers to date are programmed death ligand 1 expression, microsatellite instability/defective mismatch repair phenotype, and tumor mutational burden. Other emerging biomarkers, such as circulating tumor DNA and microbiota, require evaluation in clinical trials. This review aims to examine these biomarkers for ICI response in urothelial cancer and assess their analytical and clinical validation.
