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

Understanding the cellular interactions within the tumor microenvironment (TME) of melanoma paved the way for novel therapeutic modalities, such as T cell-targeted immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). However, only a limited fraction of patients benefits from such therapeutic modalities, highlighting the need for novel predictive and prognostic biomarkers. As myeloid cells orchestrate the tumor-specific immune response and influence the efficacy of ICI, assessing their activation state within the TME is of clinical relevance. Here, we characterized a myeloid activation (MA) signature, comprising the three genes
