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 tumor microenvironment (TME) provides essential conditions for the occurrence, invasion, and spread of cancer cells. Initial research has uncovered immunosuppressive properties of the TME, which include low oxygen levels (hypoxia), acidic conditions (low pH), increased interstitial pressure, heightened permeability of tumor vasculature, and an inflammatory microenvironment. The presence of various immunosuppressive components leads to immune evasion and affects immunotherapy efficacy. This indicates the potential value of targeting the TME in cancer immunotherapy. Therefore, TME remodeling has become an effective method for enhancing host immune responses against tumors. In this study, we elaborate on the characteristics and composition of the TME and how it weakens immune surveillance and summarize targeted therapeutic strategies for regulating the TME.
