An insight into the role of innate immune cells in breast tumor microenvironment.
Review in Breast cancer (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The immune background of breast cancer is highly heterogeneous and the immune system of the human body plays a dual role by both promoting and suppressing its progression. Innate immune cells are the first line of defense in the immune system and impart protection by identifying and interacting with foreign pathogens and cancer cells. Different innate immune cells like natural killer cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and myeloid suppressor cells take part in hosting the cancer cells. Autophagy is another key component inside the tumor microenvironment and is linked to the disintegration and recycling of cellular components. Within the tumor microenvironment autophagy is involved with Pattern Recognition Receptors and inflammation. Various clinical studies have shown prominent results where innate immune cells and autophagy in combination are used for pathogen as well as cancer cell clearance. However, it is necessary to comprehend the complex tumor microenvironment so that different therapeutic approaches can be developed to enhance the suppressive actions of the cells toward breast cancer cells. In this review article, the complex interaction between immune cells and breast cancer cells and their role in developing effective immunotherapies to improve patient outcomes are discussed in detail.
