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 management of urothelial carcinoma (UC) is undergoing a paradigm shift from static anatomical staging to molecularly guided dynamic approaches that integrate time as a critical therapeutic variable. This evolution is driven by liquid biopsies, particularly circulating tumor DNA, which allow real-time tumor interrogation. We conducted this expert review to synthesize landmark evidence, enabling technologies, and implementation challenges in dynamic precision oncology for UC. In this non-systematic narrative review, we searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for articles published between January 2015 and February 2026. Studies were selected based on their relevance to dynamic precision oncology, clinical actionability, and translational implementation, prioritizing landmark randomized controlled trials providing level 1-2 evidence, large prospective cohorts, and key translational studies. Enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab established the new first-line standard for metastatic UC, achieving a median overall survival of 33.8 months versus 15.9 months (hazard ratio [HR] 0.51, 95% confidence interval 0.43-0.61). Circulating tumor DNA demonstrates robust prognostic value for molecular residual disease (MRD) detection (Level 2a evidence), stratifying recurrence risk with hazard ratios of approximately 4.5. Critically, the IMvigor011 trial has now provided Level 1b evidence that ctDNA-guided adjuvant atezolizumab improves both disease-free survival (DFS) (HR 0.64,
