Maturation of Tertiary Lymphoid Structures.
Review in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are organized collections of B and T lymphocytes that arise in nonlymphoid tissue in response to chronic, unresolved inflammation. TLS have structural and functional similarities to germinal centers found in lymph nodes and are believed to support the establishment of lymph node-like adaptive immune responses at local sites of inflammation. However, understanding of the underlying biology of these structures remains limited, particularly the different stages of TLS life cycle and the signals governing the initiation, maturation, and termination of TLS. Here, we review current understanding of the maturation of TLS and the signals and cell types involved in various stages of development with particular emphasis on recent studies of TLS in cancer, where evidence suggests that TLS may play an important role in supporting antitumor immune responses in solid tumors.
