1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The liquid biopsy (LB) represents a minimally invasive method for cancer screening that has been introduced in clinical practice for over a decade and that can accelerate treatment response assessment. LB allows the analysis of tumor cells or tumor-derived products (e.g. cell-free circulating nucleic acids, extracellular vesicles, and proteins) released from primary or metastatic tumor lesions into blood or other body fluids. In the era of immune-oncology, recent evidence indicates that tumor-specific immune responses can be detected in peripheral immune cells. The improvement of knowledge and the standardization of the isolation methods of these techniques will allow the detection and characterization of circulating tumor and immune biomarkers at an early stage as innovative tools to predict response to therapies. Nowadays, the analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), circulating tumor cells (CTCs), peripheral blood-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) and circulating tumor RNA (ctRNA) remains under-developed even if these non-invasive techniques can provide the complete genetic landscape of tumors and allow systematic tracking of cancer evolution. In addition, the evaluation of blood circulating cytokines, and early dynamics changes in the PBMCs of patients with solid tumors represent a promising area of research. Here, we present a comprehensive methodological framework for the evaluation of innovative peripheral blood-derived biomarkers. We also address the current challenges in isolation methods and analysis of PBMC, CTC, EVs and TEPs which are crucial for structuring the large amount of comprehensive information obtained from such samples, with the aim of advancing the translational cancer field.
