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

It remains unclear that how tumor immune micro-environment will change following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). In this study, we aimed to characterize the changes in tumor-infiltrating immune cells and checkpoint molecules following NACT and investigate the prognostic value of these changes in LAGC. Paired tumor samples (pre-NACT and post-NACT) of 60 patients were retrospectively identified and analyzed by multiplex immunohistochemistry with a panel including CD4, CD8, FOXP3, PD-1, PD-L1, and TIM3. Following NACT, the overall median expression levels of CD4, CD8, PD1, PD-L1 and TIM3 were significantly increased (
