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

Immunotherapy efficacy in NSCLC is significantly reduced upon liver metastasis due to profound alterations in the tumor microenvironment, characterized by the absence of cyclic mechanical stretch and increased extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness. However, the mechanisms underlying the synergistic regulation of these two mechanical cues on the immunotherapy response in NSCLC cells remain poorly understood. In this study, it is demonstrated that both mechanical and biochemical activation of the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo 1 induces nuclear translocation of YAP, thereby promoting an immunotherapy-responsive tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) through enhanced expression of PD-L1 and secretion of chemokine C-X-C ligand 10 (CXCL10, chemokine recruiting CD8
