Is the development of liquid biopsy for the early detection and the monitoring of breast cancers on its way of overtaking mammography?
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mammography, as of today, is used as a gold standard for screening, diagnosing, and monitoring breast cancer (BC). While overall beneficial, it presents several downsides, such as limitations in accuracy, relatively high costs, and dependence on heavy infrastructure, greatly limiting accessibility for the entire global target population. There is currently no established alternative to mammography, and overcoming this major challenge is a hot topic in research and technology. One avenue for tackling this issue is the development of highly sensitive and specific non-invasive blood tests for the early diagnosis and follow-up of breast cancer. This paper discusses the limitations of mammography and recapitulates the blood tests already available, those under development, and future developments in this field.
