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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly invasive cancer, and its poor therapeutic outcomes are often associated with the mechanical properties of the tumor microenvironment, which is characterized by altered extracellular matrix (ECM) flexibility and increased stiffness. Herein, a mechanical immunomodulator, namely, red blood cell membrane-IR780-L-arginine nanoparticles (R-I-LA NPs), was designed to precisely regulate the stiffness of the ECM for mechanical immunotherapy of TNBC. In tumor cells, the low-intensity focused ultrasound activates R-I-LA NPs to produce reactive nitrogen species, which damages tumor cells and remodels the stiffness of ECM. Meanwhile, the softened ECM can normalize the tumor vasculature to alleviate hypoxia and increase the production of reactive oxygen species, thereby enhancing the efficacy of sonodynamic therapy and stimulating immunogenic cell death. Additionally, R-I-LA NPs stimulate the immune system and suppress pulmonary metastasis. Overall, this study offers a distinctive "sono-gas-mediated mechanical immunity" strategy for ECM regulation, potentially overcoming current TNBC therapy limitations.
