Roles of Tumor-Educated Platelets (TEPs) in the biology of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): A systematic review. "Re-discovering the neglected biosources of the liquid biopsy family".
Review in The journal of liquid biopsy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Due to their interactions with the neoplasm, platelets undergo various proteomic and transcriptomic modifications, resulting in the development of what is known as the "Tumor-Educated Platelets (TEPs) phenotype". Consequently, in addition to their suitability for Liquid Biopsy (LB) applications, they play a pivotal role in the malignancy by communicating with Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), Tumor Microenvironment (TME), and the tumor itself through multiple mechanisms and at multiple levels, ultimately promoting the metastasis of cancer. Therefore, this Systematic Review of MEDLINE and the Cochrane Library present in-depth insights into these phenomena, with the aim of enhancing the understanding of the complex interplay between TEPs and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). This endeavor serves to provide context and drive medical research efforts, which are increasingly focused on developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic technologies that leverage the specific binding of these platelets to the disease.
