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

backgroundAlthough extensive evidence indicates that tissue-resident natural killer (trNK) cells are closely related to the development and clinical outcomes of various tumours, their roles in esophageal cancer remain obscure.

methodsTumour tissues collected from 54 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients during surgery and human ESCC tissue arrays including samples from 258 patients were subjected to analyse the phenotype and functions of immune cells.

resultsWe observed a population of CD49a

conclusionsOur research reveals that tumour-infiltrated CD49a
