Precision Medicine in Urothelial Carcinoma: Current Markers to Guide Treatment and Promising Future Directions.
Review in Current treatment options in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
opinion statementThe treatment landscape for urothelial cancer has changed dramatically in the last 10 years, with the approval of several new treatments. At the same time, profiling of individual tumors has become more commonplace with widespread availability of molecular testing and immunohistochemistry. For urothelial cancer, this has led to current guidelines recommending that molecular testing be obtained in the metastatic setting, and that it be considered in the setting of locally advanced disease. Between molecular testing and immunohistochemistry testing of tumors, the only current guideline-directed application of these tests is in the identification of FGFR3 or FGFR2 alterations for use of FGFR inhibitors. While additional recurrent molecular alterations linked to the pathogenesis of urothelial cancer have been identified, the ability to successfully "drug" the pathways association with such alterations remains limited. There has been extensive research into whether expression of particular proteins might inform specific treatment approaches such as the use of PD-L1 testing to guide immune checkpoint blockade. With the integration of antibody-drug conjugates into the treatment armamentarium for urothelial cancer, ongoing research is seeking to determine whether expression of the targets of these therapies, such as Nectin 4, Trop-2, or HER2, could help to guide treatment.
