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

Investigations that decipher the human microbiome have reformed the way medicine is focusing on bacteria. An interesting research review recently published in the journal of Digestive Diseases and Sciences conceivably linked adjunctive commensal intestinal bacteria with the capacity to modulate the immune microenvironment towards immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICIs) efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Evidence has emerged that the intestinal microbiome can modulate outcomes to ICIs therapies via two major mechanisms, namely mechanisms that are antigen-specific (i.e., epitopes are shared between microbial and tumour antigens that can enhance or reduce anti-tumour immune responses) and those mechanisms that are antigen-independent (i.e., modulation of responses to ICIs by engaging innate and/or adaptive immune cells).
