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

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play dual roles (both pro- and antitumor) in tumor progression. TAMs induce programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression in cancer cells. However, the regulatory effects of PD-L1 in melanoma cells on TAM phenotypical switching remain underexplored. Herein, CD163 and MRC1 levels were significantly elevated in metastatic melanomas compared with those in primary melanomas, correlating with CD274 expression and predicted patient clinical outcomes. To study the mechanisms regulating M2-like polarization, PD-L1 was knocked out in both YUMM1.7 and B16-F10 melanoma cells. Knocking out PD-L1 (PD-L1
