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

Advanced tumors are associated with treatment dilemmas. High-risk diffuse metastasis results in increased difficulty in treatment. Furthermore, the deterioration of the patient's physical condition gives rise to an inability to tolerate high-intensity systemic treatment. As a palliative treatment for patients with advanced cancer, interventional therapy is characterized by precise targeting and fewer adverse reactions. Nevertheless, its role is frequently overlooked. Therefore, a female patient who only received local palliative treatment with microwave ablation and radioactive iodine-125 seed implantation for multiple metastatic masses of gallbladder cancer is reported. This intervention achieved complete systemic remission, representing a rare instance of durable systemic remission without chemotherapy throughout the disease course, including the metastatic phase. The present study evaluated its immunological basis as an
