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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is highly heterogeneous, lacks accessible therapeutic targets, and features an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Anthracycline-based chemotherapy remains the primary treatment method for TNBC, while the current popular immune checkpoint inhibitors persistently encounter therapeutic resistance. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore combined therapeutic strategies to remodel the TME and improve the treatment response. Considering the highly specific homing ability of tumor cell-derived vesicles and the key role of the signal transduction and activation of the transcription factor 3 (STAT3) pathway in TNBC, we propose a synergistic therapeutic strategy that integrates gene therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy based on STAT3 short interfering RNA (siSTAT3) and doxorubicin (DOX)-functionalized tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (TEVs) (siSTAT3-DOX@TEV). The in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that siSTAT3-DOX@TEV target tumor tissues precisely, downregulate STAT3 expression, and synergistically and efficiently induce immunogenic death, thereby reversing the immunosuppressive TME. Moreover, mass cytometry and immunohistochemistry reveal the local immune activation effect of siSTAT3-DOX@TEV, with a significant increase in M1 macrophages, CD4
