Treatment modalities favoring outcome in well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors G3.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) are a rare and heterogenous group of tumors arising from neuroendocrine cells in multiple organs. Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) G3 encompass a small subgroup accounting for less than 10% of all neuroendocrine neoplasms. In contrast to NET G1 and G2 as well as neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC), in NET G3 data on treatment and patient outcomes are still limited. Especially in a metastasized tumor stage, the role of surgery, peptide receptor radionucleotide therapy (PRRT), and systemic chemotherapy is not clearly defined. Methods: In this real-life cohort, we consecutively analyzed clinical outcome in NET G3 patients receiving different diagnostic and treatment. Results and discussion: We found that even metastasized NET G3 patients undergoing surgery, or receiving radiation, somatostatin analogues (SSA), and PRRT showed a clear survival benefit. Interestingly, all treatment regimen were superior to classical chemotherapeutic agents. In addition, somatostatin receptor (SSTR) PET-CT, FDG PET-CT, and repetitive biopsies were shown to be useful diagnostic and prognostic tools in NET G3. Our study demonstrates that patients with highly proliferative NET G3 might benefit from less aggressive treatment modalities commonly used in low proliferative NEN.
