A novel vaccinia virus enhances anti-tumor efficacy and promotes a long-term anti-tumor response in a murine model of colorectal cancer.
Article in Molecular therapy oncolytics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers.
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.
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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world, and there remains an urgent need to develop long-lasting therapies to treat CRC and prevent recurrence in patients. Oncolytic virus therapy (OVT) has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in a number of different cancer models. Here, we report a novel vaccinia virus (VV)-based OVT for treatment of CRC. The novel VV, based on the recently reported novel VVLΔTKΔN1L virus, was armed with the pleiotropic cytokine interleukin-21 (IL-21) to enhance anti-tumor immune responses stimulated after viral infection of tumor cells. Compared with an unarmed virus, VVLΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21 had a superior anti-tumor efficacy in murine CMT93 subcutaneous CRC models
