Clinical applications of circulating tumor cells in patients with solid tumors.
Review in Clinical & experimental metastasis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
The concept of liquid biopsy analysis has been established more than a decade ago. Since the establishment of the term, tremendous advances have been achieved and plenty of methods as well as analytes have been investigated in basic research as well in clinical trials. Liquid biopsy refers to a body fluid-based biopsy that is minimal-invasive, and most importantly, allows dense monitoring of tumor responses by sequential blood sampling. Blood is the most important analyte for liquid biopsy analyses, providing an easily accessible source for a plethora of cells, cell-derived products, free nucleic acids, proteins as well as vesicles. More than 12,000 publications are listed in PubMed as of today including the term liquid biopsy. In this manuscript, we critically review the current implications of liquid biopsy, with special focus on circulating tumor cells, and describe the hurdles that need to be addressed before liquid biopsy can be implemented in clinical standard of care guidelines.
