BioPearl™ doxorubicin microspheres for unresectable HCC: a prospective, single-arm, multicenter study: BIOPEARL-ONE.

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
Drug-eluting microsphere transarterial chemoembolization (DEM-TACE) reduces systemic exposure to chemotherapeutic drugs compared with conventional TACE but permanently occludes the embolized vessels, potentially obviating the possibility of re-treatment with TACE. Temporary embolization by resorbable BioPearl™ microspheres might facilitate subsequent re-treatments. We herein describe the trial protocol of BIOPEARL-ONE, a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, post-market clinical follow-up study. The primary objectives are technical success and safety following the use. DEM-TACE with doxorubicin-loaded BioPearl™ for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The secondary objectives are tumor response, duration of response, progression-free survival, and survival rate at 18 months. Fifty patients with HCC nodules smaller than 5 cm and within the up-to-7 criteria will be enrolled.
