The role of tumor-associated macrophages in HPV induced cervical cancer.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Human papillomavirus (HPV), a double-stranded DNA virus linked to various malignancies, poses a significant global public health challenge. In cervical cancer, persistent infection with high-risk HPV genotypes, particularly HPV-16 and HPV-18, initiates immune evasion mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment. The polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) from M1 to M2 phenotypes promotes cervical carcinogenesis, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance via establishing an immunosuppressive microenvironment. This review provides a comprehensive overview of HPV-induced immune evasion pathways, including MHC downregulation, T-cell impairment, regulatory T cell induction, and cGAS-STING pathway inhibition. Furthermore, describe the pivotal role of TAMs in cervical cancer progression, focusing on their phenotypic plasticity, pro-tumoral functions, and potential as therapeutic targets. By elucidating these cellular and molecular dynamics, this review aims to support advanced research. Targeting TAM polarization through immunotherapies and nanomedicine-based strategies represents a promising strategy for enhancing patient outcomes.
