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

Immunotherapies have revolutionized intervention strategies for many primary cancers, but have not improved the outcomes of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), which remains one of the most lethal malignant cerebral tumours. Here we present an injectable hydrogel system that stimulates tumoricidal immunity after GBM surgical resection, which mitigates its relapse. The hydrogel comprises a tumour-homing immune nanoregulator, which induces immunogenic cell death and suppression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1, and chemotactic CXC chemokine ligand 10, for a sustained T-cell infiltration. When delivered in the resected tumour cavity, the hydrogel system mimics a 'hot' tumour-immunity niche for attacking residual tumour cells and significantly suppresses postoperative GBM recurrence. Our work provides an alternative strategy for conferring effective tumoricidal immunity in GBM patients, which may have a broad impact in the immunotherapy of 'cold' tumours after surgical intervention.
