Combined Immune Therapy Proves Effective in an Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patient With Poor Liver Reserve: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There are no effective treatment options for patients with poor performance status and limited liver reserve, classified as Child-Pugh Grade B and C. A 61-year-old man with a prior medical history of hepatitis C virus infection was admitted to the hospital with abdominal distension and significant abdominal ascites. He was diagnosed with stage IVB hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), characterized by multiple metastases to lymph nodes, lungs, and bones. After receiving combined immune therapy, including dendritic cell therapy targeting WT1 and α-Galactosylceramide, natural killer cells, and Nivolumab, the patient showed significant improvement in HCC and liver reserve function and followed standard treatment. Combined immune therapy is potentially an important option for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and poor liver reserve function, especially for relatively young patients.
