Reduced number of IFN-γ producing cells in peripheral blood is a biomarker for patients with renal cell carcinoma.

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
Renal cell cancer (RCC) is the most lethal of all the common urologic cancers and constitutes 2.2% of all malignancy diagnoses. The incidence of RCC has been steadily increasing in recent decades. The classic risk factors of RCC include smoking, hypertension, obesity, genetics, and genetic mutations. Recent studies also revealed that RCC was an immunogenic tumor and affected by host immune status. Among the pan-cance, RCC presented with the highest degree of immune infiltration, indicating RCC patients might benefit from immunotherapy. A new immune classification of RCC has been developed by Su et al. based on tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes to guide clinical practice. However, these studies mainly focus on biomarkers derived from tumor microenvironment (TME), the biomarkers based on peripheral blood samples to RCC have rarely been described. We collected peripheral blood samples from RCC patients and their matched healthy controls and detected the number of IL-2 and IFN-γ producing cells by implementing an enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay. This is the first study to report blood-based immune biomarkers for RCC using an ELISPOT assay. Our results suggested the frequency of IFN-γ producing cells but not IL-2 producing cells was associated with RCC risk. These findings warrant further validation in larger prospective studies.
