Stereotactic body radiation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma: a comprehensive review.
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presents significant challenges in modern surgical and radiation oncology, primarily due to biological heterogeneity and the complexities of underlying liver cirrhosis. This review evaluates stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) as a mature, curative-intent modality within the multidisciplinary management of primary hepatic malignancies. Drawing parallels with high-dose-per-fraction successes in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and spinal metastases, we analyze the physical evolution, radiobiological principles, and functional dosimetric constraints specific to the hepatic microenvironment. Specifically, we examine advanced motion management, distinguishing pre-treatment setup from real-time intrafractional monitoring via kilovoltage projection streaming images (kV-PSI) and MR-guidance. We evaluate the prognostic value of metabolic imaging parameters, specifically
