1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 tumor microenvironment consists of a complex milieu of cells and factors that maintain equilibrium between tumor progression and destruction. Characterization of the immune contexture in primary tumors has consistently shown that T lymphocytes are an integral predictor of improved clinical outcome. This is notably true in colorectal carcinoma where high densities of cytotoxic or memory T lymphocytes in the invasive margin and the center of the primary tumor predict better patient survival, a measure termed Immunoscore. Since a high Immunoscore and pre-existing adaptive immune response are significantly correlated with improved clinical outcome, it is essential to understand the mechanisms underlying functional T lymphocyte infiltration into the tumor. The ability of cytolytic and memory T lymphocytes to migrate into tumors is regulated by multiple strategies including T lymphocyte help, homing factors, cytokines, tumor genotype, angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and neurological signals. This chapter will discuss the predominant factors that mediate T-lymphocyte infiltration into tumors and how analysis of these biomarkers determine patients' disease-related survival and predicts response to cancer therapy.
