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

V-domain Ig suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA), a newly discovered negative immune checkpoint, is thought to be related to immunotherapy resistance and may become a new immune therapeutic target. Here, we evaluated the expression of VISTA in a cohort containing 254 patients with untreated triple-negative breast cancer. The relevance of VISTA expression, clinicopathologic parameters, expression of other immune markers, and prognosis were investigated in the whole cohort. Genomic analysis of 139 triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) was also performed. VISTA was expressed in the immune cells (ICs) and in the tumor cells (TCs) in 87.8% (223/254) and 18.5% (47/254) of the cohort, respectively. VISTA-positive ICs were associated with no lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001), American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage I and II (p = 0.001) and basal-like subtype (p < 0.001). VISTA expression in ICs positively correlated with some tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) types, particularly with the CD4
