Article in Molecular therapy oncolytics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05102643 (A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled, Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 DNA Vaccine Delivered Intramuscularly Followed by Electroporation for COVID-19 in Healthy Adults), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

Checkpoint immunotherapy is a major breakthrough for cancer treatment, yet its efficacy is often limited against many types of malignancies, including malignant mesothelioma. Considering that the immunotherapeutic efficacy depends on immunosurveillance, we sought to develop an active immunization method to break immune tolerance to tumor self-antigen. Here, we demonstrated that TWIST1, the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, was associated with human mesothelioma tumorigenesis and required for the invasion and metastasis of mesothelioma in the immune-competent murine AB1 model. When conventional TWIST1 vaccines were not effective
