Hallmarks of liver cancer: Therapeutic implications.
Review in Cell, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The hallmarks of cancer, first proposed in 2000, have since provided a unified framework for understanding the complexity of carcinogenesis. This conceptual model has profoundly influenced the treatment landscape of primary liver cancer, which includes hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, ∼85%) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA, 10%)-malignancies with high mortality. Key hallmarks exhibited by HCC include sustaining proliferative signaling, inducing or accessing vasculature, and avoiding immune detection. Over the past two decades, outcomes for patients with advanced HCC have significantly improved with immunotherapies. iCCA is characterized by hallmarks such as sustaining proliferative signaling, deregulating cellular metabolism, and avoiding immune detection. Unlike HCC, roughly 45% of iCCA harbor alterations amenable to precision oncology approaches, including fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusions, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations, ERBB2 alterations, and BRAF mutations. In this review, we explore how this framework has reshaped liver cancer care and discuss the resulting breakthroughs in management and emerging directions that may further improve therapeutic strategies.
