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 immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) is the main reason for the failure of many immunotherapies that directly stimulate anti-tumor immune response. Anti-CTLA-4 antibody may reduce effector regulatory T (Treg) cell numbers and their suppressive activity in the TME. We have previously reported that combination of anti-CTLA-4 antibody with MUC1 mRNA nanovaccine may mutually enhance each single treatment. But the enhancement mechanism of therapeutic efficacy of MUC1 mRNA nanovaccine plus anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody (mAb) is unknown. In this study, anti-tumor CTL activity induced by combination of CTLA-4 Blockade with MUC1 mRNA nanovaccine and immunosuppressive factors in the TME of triple negative breast cancer were investigated. The results demonstrated that combined therapy with nanovaccine and anti-CTLA-4 mAb could induce stronger anti-tumor CTL response than each monotherapy, result in significantly decreased numbers of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), Treg cells, tumor-associated fibroblasts (TAFs) and tumor vasculature in the TME, downregulated levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α and transforming growth factor-β, and significantly upregulated levels of IFN-γ and interleukin-12 as well as increased number of CD8
