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

Osteosarcoma (OS), a malignant bone tumor with limited treatment options, exhibits low sensitivity to immune checkpoint therapy (ICT). Through genomics and transcriptomics analyses, we identify a subgroup of OS with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) deletion, which contributes to ICT resistance, leading to a "cold" tumor microenvironment. MTAP-deleted OS relies on methionine metabolism and is sensitive to methionine intervention, achieved through either dietary restriction or inhibition of methionine adenosyltransferase 2a (MAT2A), a key enzyme in methionine metabolism. We further demonstrate that methionine intervention triggers programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) transcription factor IKAROS family zinc finger 1 (IKZF1) and enhances PD-L1 expression in MTAP-deleted OS cells. Methionine intervention also activates the immune-related signaling pathways in MTAP-deleted OS cells and attracts CD8
