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

Tumor immunotherapy has achieved remarkable efficacy, with immune-checkpoint inhibitors as especially promising candidates for cancer therapy. However, some issues caused by immunotherapy have raised attention, such as limited efficacy for some patients, narrow antineoplastic spectrum, and adverse reactions, suggesting that using regulators of tumor immune response may prove to be more complicated than anticipated. Current evidence indicates that different factors collectively constituting the unique tumor microenvironment promote immune tolerance, and these include the expression of co-inhibitory molecules, the secretion of lactate, and competition for nutrients between tumor cells and immune cells. Furthermore, cancer-associated fibroblasts, the main cellular components of solid tumors, promote immunosuppression through inhibition of T cell function and extracellular matrix remodeling. Here, we summarize the research advances in tumor immunotherapy and the latest insights into the influence of microenvironment on tumor immunotherapy.
