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 inadequate activation of antigen-presenting cells, the entanglement of T cells, and the highly immunosuppressive conditions in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are important factors that limit the effectiveness of cancer vaccines. Studies show that a personalized and broad antigen repertoire fully activates anti-tumor immunity and that inhibiting the function of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β facilitates T cell migration. In our study, we introduce a vaccine strategy by engineering irradiated tumor cell-derived microparticles (RT-MPs), which have both personalized and broad antigen repertoire, to induce comprehensive anti-tumor effects. Encouraged by the proinflammatory effects of the spike protein from the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the high affinity between TGF-β receptor 2 (TGFBR2) and TGF-β, we develop RT-MPs with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and TGFBR2. This spike protein and high TGFBR2 expression induce the innate immune response and ameliorate the immunosuppressive TME, thereby promoting T cell activation and infiltration and ultimately inhibiting tumor growth. Our study provides a strategy for producing an effective personalized anti-tumor vaccine.
