Interferon-γ-stimulated antigen-presenting cancer-associated fibroblasts hinder neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy efficacy in lung cancer.
Article in Cell reports. Medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
Conventional neoadjuvant chemotherapy provides limited benefit for patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Recently, neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NCIT) has transformed the perioperative management of NSCLC by priming systemic anti-tumor immunity before surgery, yet it remains ineffective for at least 50% of patients. Through single-cell sequencing analysis of our NCIT cohort, we identify that antigen-presenting cancer-associated fibroblasts (apCAFs) can impede the efficacy of NCIT. Using a custom cancer-associated fibroblast biobank, we uncover that interferon (IFN)-γ stimulates apCAF expansion via the JAK1/2-STAT1-IFI6/27 pathway. Mechanistically, apCAFs significantly contribute to PD-L2 expression in the tumor microenvironment (TME), triggering the accumulation of FOXP1
