Liquid biopsy for breast cancer and other solid tumors: a review of recent advances.
Review in Breast cancer (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Liquid biopsy using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has been reported to be less invasive and effective for comprehensive genetic analysis of heterogeneous solid tumors, including decision-making for therapeutic strategies, predicting recurrence, and detecting genetic factors related to treatment resistance in various types of cancers. Breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer are among the most prevalent malignancies worldwide, and clinical studies of liquid biopsy for these cancers are ongoing. Liquid biopsy has been used as a companion diagnostic tool in clinical settings, and research findings have accumulated, especially in cases of colorectal cancer after curative resection and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after curative chemoradiotherapy, in which ctDNA detection helps predict eligibility for adjuvant chemotherapy. Liquid biopsy using ctDNA shows promise across a wide range of cancer types, including breast cancer, and its clinical applications are expected to expand further through ongoing research. In this article, studies on liquid biopsy in breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and NSCLC are compared focusing on ctDNA.
