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
Introduction: Natural prevention of cancer development depends on an efficient immunosurveillance that may be modulated by environmental factors, including infections. Innate lymphoid cytotoxic cells have been shown to play a major role in this immunosurveillance. Interleukin-12 (IL-12) has been suggested to be a key factor in the activation of innate cytotoxic cells after infection, leading to the enhancement of cancer immunosurveillance. Methods: The aim of this work was to analyze in mouse experimental models by which mechanisms the interaction between infectious agent molecules and the early innate responses could enhance early inhibition of cancer growth and especially to assess the role of IL-12 by using novel antibodies specific for IL-12 heterodimers. Results: Ligation of toll-like receptor (TLR)9 by CpG-protected mice against plasmacytoma TEPC.1033.C2 cell early growth. This protection mediated by innate cytolytic cells was strictly dependent on IL-12 and partly on gamma-interferon. Moreover, the protective effect of CpG stimulation, and to a lesser extent of TLR3 and TLR7/8, and the role of IL-12 in this protection were confirmed in a model of early mesothelioma AB1 cell growth. Discussion: These results suggest that modulation of the mouse immune microenvironment by ligation of innate receptors deeply modifies the efficiency of cancer immunosurveillance through the secretion of IL-12, which may at least partly explain the inhibitory effect of previous infections on the prevalence of some cancers.
