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

Purpose: Recent studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), such as gambogic acid (GA), is involved in the regulation of tumor immune microenvironment and can be combined with other anti-tumor treatment strategies. Here, we used GA as an adjuvant to construct a nano-vaccine to improve the anti-tumor immune response of colorectal cancer (CRC). Materials and Methods: We used a previously reported two-step emulsification method to obtain poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) /GA nanoparticles (PLGA/GA NPs), and then CT26 colon cancer cell membrane (CCM) was used to obtain CCM-PLGA/GA NPs. This novel nano-vaccine, CCM-PLGA/GA NPs, was co-synthesized with GA as an adjuvant and neoantigen provided by CT26 CCM. We further confirmed the stability, tumor targeting, and cytotoxicity of CCM-PLGA/GA NPs. The regulatory effect on the tumor immune microenvironment, the anti-tumor efficacy, and the combined anti-tumor efficacy with anti-PD-1 monoclonal Antibodies (mAbs) of this novel nano-vaccine was also detected in vivo. Results: We successfully constructed the CCM-PLGA/GA NPs. In vitro and in vivo tests showed low biological toxicity, as well as the high tumor-targeting ability of the CCM-PLGA/GA NPs. Besides, we revealed a remarkable effect of CCM-PLGA/GA NPs to activate the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and the formation of a positive anti-tumor immune microenvironment. Conclusion: This novel nano-vaccine constructed with GA as the adjuvant and CCM providing the tumor antigen can not only directly kill tumors by enhancing the ability of GA to target tumors, but also indirectly kill tumors by regulating tumor immune microenvironment, providing a new strategy for immunotherapy of CRC.
