Applications and challenges of immunotherapy in the management of gastric adenocarcinoma: current status and future perspectives.
Review in World journal of surgical oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) remains a significant global public health challenge, characterized by high incidence and mortality rates. Progress in tumor immunology has introduced immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) pathways, demonstrating substantial potential in GAC therapy. Clinical research indicates that ICIs, particularly when combined with chemotherapy or targeted therapies, significantly enhance treatment efficacy in advanced GAC and specific molecular subtypes, including microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive patients. However, immunotherapy is also associated with a range of immune-related adverse events (irAEs), necessitating effective management strategies to ensure treatment safety and maintain patients' quality of life. Future studies should focus on identifying new therapeutic targets, optimizing patient selection, and developing personalized treatment approaches to further improve the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy in GAC.
