Cancer Stem Cells in the Immune Microenvironment.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cancer stem cells are a subpopulation of cancer cells responsible for the most demanding and aggressive cancer cell phenotypes: therapy resistance, a self-protective feature of stem cells; distant metastasis, requiring anchorage independence for survival in the circulation; and recurrence, which is related to the dormant-active cycling of stem cells. Normal tissues are composed of parenchymal cells, supportive connective components, and cellular disposal systems for removing the products of physiological wear and tear. Cancer stem cells develop from normal counterparts and progressively interact with their microenvironments, modifying and conditioning the cancer microenvironment. Cancer-associated myeloid cells constitute a major element of the cancer microenvironment. During the process of carcinogenesis, cancer stem cells and their intimately associated myeloid cells mutually interact and evolve, such that the cancer cells potentiate the activity of the myeloid cells and, in return, the myeloid cells increase cancer stem cell characteristics. Normal myeloid cells function as key accessory cells to maintain homeostasis in normal tissues and organs; in cancers, these cells co-evolve with the malignant parenchymal cells and are involved in every aspect of cancer cell biology, including proliferation, invasion, distant metastasis, and the development of resistance to therapy. In this way, cancer-associated myeloid cells provide two of the key hallmarks of cancer: evasion of immune destruction and cancer-promoting inflammation.
