Advances in immunotherapy of M2 macrophages and gastrointestinal stromal tumor.
Review in World journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal-derived tumors of the GI tract. They can occur throughout the GI tract, and the survival time of some patients can be improved by first-line targeted therapy with imatinib. However, there are some limitations with imatinib treatment. Immunotherapy for GIST has attracted much attention in recent years, and as one of the most abundant cells in the GIST microenvironment, M2 macrophages play an important role in disease progression. They have unique anti-inflammatory and pro-tumorigenic effects and are one target for immunotherapy. This review summarizes the connection between different factors and the programmed death receptor-1/programmed death ligand-1 pathway and M2 macrophages to reactivate or enhance anti-tumor immunity and improve imatinib efficacy, and to provide new ideas for GIST immunotherapy.
