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

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common type of lung cancer, remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as a promising therapy for NSCLC but only benefit a subset of patients. In this issue of the JCI, Jiao et al. revealed that acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) limited the efficacy of ICIs in NSCLC by impeding tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Targeting ACAT1 in tumor cells reduced mitochondrial hypersuccinylation and oxidative stress, enhancing TLS abundance and improving the efficacy of ICIs in preclinical murine models of NSCLC.
