Inflammation and Immunity in Liver Neoplasms: Implications for Future Therapeutic Strategies.
Review in Molecular cancer therapeutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Over the past two decades, the "hallmarks of cancer" have revolutionized cancer research and highlighted the crucial roles of inflammation and immunity. Protumorigenic inflammation promotes cancer development along with inhibition of antitumor immunity, shaping the tumor microenvironment (TME) toward a tumor-permissive state and further enhancing the malignant potential of cancer cells. This immunosuppressive TME allows tumors to evade immunosurveillance. Thus, understanding the complex interplay between tumors and the immune system within the TME has become pivotal, especially with the advent of immunotherapy. Although immunotherapy has achieved notable success in many malignancies, primary liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, presents unique challenges. The hepatic immunosuppressive environment poses obstacles to the effectiveness of immunotherapy, along with high mortality rates and limited treatment options for patients with liver cancer. In this review, we discuss current understanding of the complex immune-mediated mechanisms underlying liver neoplasms, focusing on hepatocellular carcinoma and liver metastases. We describe the molecular and cellular heterogeneity within the TME, highlighting how this presents unique challenges and opportunities for immunotherapy in liver cancers. By unraveling the immune landscape of liver neoplasms, this review aims to contribute to the development of more effective therapeutic interventions, ultimately improving clinical outcomes for patients with liver cancer.
