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

The spleen is an important site for extramedullary hematopoiesis and tumor immunotolerance. Spleen weight varies with tumor progression and may be a predictor of tumor recurrence. However, to the best of our knowledge, the association between spleen weight and tumor progression remains unclear. The present study revealed a novel role for the spleen in predicting the cellular immune response in tumor-bearing mice. A murine H22 subcutaneous hepatoma model was established. The spleen weight and tumor weight were measured. The proportion of immune cells in peripheral blood and spleen were detected by flow cytometry. The results demonstrated that the spleen weight of tumor-bearing mice at day 21 was higher than that of the controls. In addition, spleen weight was identified to be positively correlated with tumor weight. The percentages of CD4
