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

Therapeutic outcomes of colorectal cancer (CRC) are influenced by intestinal microbiota and metabolites. To leverage the tumor-tropism and microbiota-regulating properties of bacteria, we developed oncolytic magnetotactic bacteria (MSR-CPT/APPs) loaded with camptothecin (CPT) and anti-PD-L1 peptide (APP) for targeted chemo-magnetothermal immunotherapy of CRC. To further achieve oral delivery, MSR-CPT/APPs were coated with mulberry leaf lipids and Pluronic F127 (LPs). When exposed to an alternating magnetic field, MSR-CPT/APP@LPs penetrated colonic mucus and reached deep-seated tumors. They elevated proinflammatory cytokine secretion, prolonged T cell recruitment, and reduced immunosuppressive cell proportions by activating the cGAS-STING pathway, inducing immunogenic cell death, and facilitating macrophage polarization to M1 phenotype. Oral MSR-CPT/APP@LPs increased the relative abundances of crucial commensal microorganisms (
