Immune Evasion in Cancer Metastasis: An Unappreciated Role of Monocytes.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Metastasis is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. During the metastatic cascade, cancer cells tightly interact with immune cells influencing each other in the tumor microenvironment and systemically. Monocytes are important components of immune evasion and critical regulators of cancer progression. They circulate through the bloodstream and contribute to the formation of a pro-tumor microenvironment both in the tumor and pre-metastatic niche. Whereas monocyte participation in cancer development and response to therapy has been described extensively, its impact on metastasis remains a completely uncovered area. This review first summarizes data concerning the influence of monocytes on metastasis formation during their presence in the circulation, primary tumor, and pre-metastatic niche. We also highlight the latest examinations into the clinical relevance of targeting monocytes to prevent metastasis.
