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

T-cell-mediated immune response is the prerequisite for T-cell-based immunotherapy. However, the limitation of T-cell infiltration in solid tumors restricted the therapeutic effect of T-cell-based immunotherapy. The present study screened the molecular and genetic features of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) cohort, revealing that T-cell infiltration negatively correlated with genome copy number alteration. The analysis of the TCGA-SKCM cohort indicated that the copy number of CDKN2A was significantly decreased in patients with low T-cell infiltration. The results were validated in the other two melanoma cohorts (DFCI, Science 2015, and TGEN, Genome Res 2017). Besides, the immunohistochemistry analysis of CDKN2A and CD8 expression in 5 melanoma
