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

With advancements in genomics and immunology, immunotherapy has emerged as a revolutionary strategy for tumor treatment. However, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), an immunologically "cold" tumor, exhibits limited responsiveness to immunotherapy. This study aimed to address the urgent need to uncover PDAC's immune microenvironment heterogeneity and identify the molecular mechanisms driving immune evasion. Using single-cell RNA sequencing datasets and spatial proteomics, we discovered LIM domain only 7 (LMO7) in PDAC cells as a previously unrecognized driver of immune evasion through Treg cell enrichment. LMO7 was positively correlated with infiltrating regulatory T cells (Tregs) and dysfunctional CD8
