Immune inactivation by VISTA predicts clinical outcome and therapeutic benefit in muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
Article in BMC cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundV domain Immunoglobulin suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) has been proved to be a novel immune checkpoint molecule that positively regulates T cell infiltration in several malignancies. However, the clinical impact of VISTA on muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients remains relatively obscure.
methodsThis study enrolled 135 MIBC patients from Zhongshan Hospital (ZSHS) and 391 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to examine the VISTA expression and immune contexture based on immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining and CIBERSORT algorithm. Additionally, IMvigor210 Cohort included 195 bladder-derived urothelial carcinoma patients to evaluate the efficacy of immunotherapy. Kaplan-Meier curve and Cox regression analyses were conducted to assess clinical outcomes.
