Chinese expert consensus on the clinical application of molecular diagnostics in hepatobiliary cancers (2024 edition).
Article in Liver research (Beijing, China), 2024. 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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and biliary tract cancer (BTC) are significant health challenges in China because of their high prevalence and mortality rates. Advances in molecular diagnostics have opened new avenues for personalized treatment strategies. This consensus provides a comprehensive update on the clinical applications of molecular diagnostics in HCC and BTC and addresses the urgent need for personalized treatment strategies tailored to the Chinese population, emphasizing the importance of molecular markers in guiding targeted therapies and immunotherapies. By employing the Delphi method and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system, the expert panel formulated evidence-based recommendations for the use of molecular diagnostics in the clinical management of HCC and BTC. Key molecular markers, such as isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 and 2, fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2), BRAF V600E, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), rearranged during transfection (RET), and neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK), are highlighted for their roles in optimizing treatment regimens. The consensus also explores the significance of emerging biomarkers, such as tumor mutation burden and microsatellite instability, in predicting responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors. The recommendations aim to enhance precision medicine approaches, improve patient outcomes, and foster the integration of molecular diagnostics into routine clinical practice.
