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

Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a phenotype characterized by changes in the sequence length of microsatellites in tumor cells and is closely linked to tumorigenesis and prognosis. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown good therapeutic effects in gastric cancer (GC) with MSI-high (MSI-H). However, the role of the novel immune checkpoint fibrinogen-like protein 1 (FGL1) in GC treatment has not been fully investigated. FGL1 expression in GC tissues and the difference in FGL1 immune infiltration between MSI/ microsatellite stability (MSS) patients were analyzed by bioinformatics and were verified in clinical samples. Xenograft models of MSS and MSI GC were constructed in human immune reconstitution mice, and FGL1 expression in tumors was detected. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry were used to assay the infiltration of immune cells in the two types of mice. Cytotoxicity and chemotaxis tests were used to detect the toxicity and chemotaxis of CD8
