Comprehensive Review of Transarterial Chemoembolization Plus Systemic Therapy in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer and the fifth most common cancer worldwide. For patients with unresectable, localized, intermediate-stage HCC, the standard treatment is transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).
methodsGiven the recent advances in systemic treatments for HCC with immunotherapy and targeted therapies, several studies have explored the potential benefits of combining TACE with systemic therapy, owing to the possible synergistic effects. This review analyzes recent clinical studies of patients with unresectable HCC who received TACE in combination with different classes of systemic therapies.
conclusionCollectively, these studies suggest that combining TACE with systemic therapy may enhance treatment response and improve survival outcomes.
