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 special microenvironment of a solid tumor promotes the orientation and colonization of facultative anaerobes. Intratumoral bacterial infection disrupts the local vascular system to form a thrombus, resulting in darkened tumor sites and enhanced near-infrared absorption. Based on this, we constructed thermally-induced bacteria (TIB) to express programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) at tumor tissue sites. Under laser irradiation, the elevated temperature at the tumor site not only caused damage to tumor cells but also induced the expression of PD1. Expressed PD1 bound to the ligand of PD1 (PD-L1) on the tumor cell surface and facilitated its internalization and reduction, thereby relieving immune suppression in the tumor microenvironment. Through the combined effects of photothermal therapy and immune activation, the ingenious TIB@PD1 approach greatly inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells. Therefore, bacteria-based photothermal immunotherapy represents an appealing method for tumor therapy with good specificity and selectivity.
