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

Introduction: Methods: Flow cytometry was utilized to investigate the effects of Taraxacum officinale extract (TOE) in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor 2 on the immune microenvironment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Active compounds and their potential targets were identified through an integrative approach involving GeneCards, OMIM, and DisGeNET databases, as well as UPLC-Q-Orbitrap MS analysis. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were conducted, followed by molecular docking to explore compound-target interactions. The anti-proliferative effects of isochlorogenic acid A (ICGA-A) and chicoric acid (CRA) on MDA-MB-231 and 4T1 cells were evaluated using the CCK-8 assay. Results: TOE and its active constituents, ICGA-A and CRA, demonstrate potential in augmenting PD-1 blockade therapy for TNBC. This study investigated the combination of ICGA-A and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor 2, which significantly enhanced the infiltration of macrophages and CD8+ T cells into tumors in murine models, while concurrently reducing the population of exhausted T cells. Furthermore, CRA notably increased the frequency of CD8+ T cells. Both ICGA-A and CRA therapies were also found to suppress tumor proliferation by inhibiting the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. These findings highlight the potential of ICGA-A and CRA as effective adjuvants to improve the therapeutic efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor-based immunotherapy in TNBC. Discussion: ICGA-A and CRA, bioactive compounds from
