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

Host anti-tumor immunity can be hindered by various mechanisms present within the tumor microenvironment, including the actions of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). We investigated the role of the CCR2/MCP-1 pathway in MDSC-associated tumor progression in murine lung cancer models. Phenotypic profiling revealed maximal expression of CCR2 by tumor-resident MDSCs, and MCP-1 by transplanted TC1 tumor cells, respectively. Use of CCR2-knockout (CCR2-KO) mice showed dependence of tumor growth on CCR2 signaling. Tumors in CCR2-KO mice had fewer CCR2
