Cholangiocarcinoma: The era of liquid biopsy.
Review in World journal of gastroenterology, 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
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly aggressive and heterogeneous malignancy arising from the epithelial cells of the biliary tract. The limitations of the current methods in the diagnosis of CCA highlight the urgent need for new, accurate tools for early cancer detection, better prognostication and patient monitoring. Liquid biopsy (LB) is a modern and non-invasive technique comprising a diverse group of methodologies aiming to detect tumour biomarkers from body fluids. These biomarkers include circulating tumour cells, cell-free DNA, circulating tumour DNA, RNA and extracellular vesicles. The aim of this review is to explore the current and potential future applications of LB in CCA management, with a focus on diagnosis, prognostication and monitoring. We examine both its significant potential and the inevitable limitations associated with this technology. We conclude that LB holds considerable promise, but further research is necessary to fully integrate it into precision oncology for CCA.
