The role of combined FDG and SST PET/CT in neuroendocrine tumors.
Review in Journal of neuroendocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Somatostatin receptor (SST) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT) is the gold standard for functional imaging of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), but FDG PET/CT is increasingly recognized for its prognostic value, particularly for higher-grade NETs and to detect disease heterogeneity. Despite the established role of pathological grading, clinical heterogeneity within the tumor burden often complicates accurate prognostication. Evidence suggests FDG PET/CT can outperform WHO grading in predicting outcomes by identifying aggressive, undifferentiated tumor clones that influence long-term prognosis and treatment decisions. Several grading systems integrating both SST and FDG PET/CT have been proposed to better capture tumor heterogeneity and guide clinical management. Studies demonstrate that FDG PET/CT can influence management in a significant subset of patients, although variably reported. Its use remains variable across centers, also affected by different reimbursement policies and local clinical practices. This review explores the indications to FDG PET/CT in NET and the clinical impact of combined SST and FDG PET/CT imaging.
