Immunotherapy Based on Immune Checkpoint Molecules and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Gastric Cancer-Narrative Review.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Due to its rapid progression to advanced stages and highly metastatic properties, gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most aggressive malignancies and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The metastatic process includes local invasion, metastasis initiation, migration with colonisation at distant sites, and evasion of the immune response. Tumour growth involves the activation of inhibitory signals associated with the immune response, also known as immune checkpoints, including PD-1/PD-L1 (programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1), CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T cell antigen 4), TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains), and others. Immune checkpoint molecules (ICPMs) are proteins that modulate the innate and adaptive immune responses. While their expression is prominent on immune cells, mainly antigen-presenting cells (APC) and other types of cells, they are also expressed on tumour cells. The engagement of the receptor by the ligand is crucial for inhibiting or stimulating the immune cell, which is an extremely important aspect of cancer immunotherapy. This narrative review explores immunotherapy, focusing on ICPMs and immune checkpoint inhibitors in GC. We also summarise the current clinical trials that are evaluating ICPMs as a target for GC treatment.
