Expression of the immune checkpoint receptor TIGIT in seminoma.
Article in Oncology letters, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
A characteristic feature of testicular seminoma is the abundance of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, raising the possibility that immune checkpoint inhibitors may serve as a therapeutic option in these types of tumors. T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT) is an inhibitory immune checkpoint receptor in analogy to PD-1, and drugs targeting TIGIT are currently being investigated in clinical trials. Little is known about the expression of these proteins in testicular seminomas. Therefore the present study performed immunohistochemical analysis to determine the relative abundance of TIGIT and PD-1 in relation to the total CD3
