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

Tumor-derived exosomes play a pivotal role in regulating tumor progression by mediating crosstalk between tumor cells and immune cells such as macrophages within the tumor microenvironment. Macrophages can adopt two distinct polarization statuses and switch between M1 or M2 activation phenotypes in response to the different external stimuli. However, the role of tumor derived exosomes in the macrophage phenotypic switch and tumor development have not been elucidated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Here we found that high macrophage infiltration was associated with worse prognosis in RCC patients, therefore we propose our hypothesis that RCC derived exosomes might directly influence macrophage polarization and thus promote tumor progression. Both cell-based
