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

Glycolytic activity of cancer cells not only reduces their vulnerability to cuproptosis but also heightens the immunosuppressive state of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Our study introduces a nanoplatform called dual-remodeling cuproptosis-inducing agent with hybrid cell membrane coating (DREAM), which is crafted to simultaneously modify the metabolic and immunological landscapes of the TME to enhance cuproptosis-driven immunotherapy. This platform exploits cancer-cell-derived membranes for homologous targeting, enhancing tumor specificity, intratumoral penetration, and intracellular copper delivery. DREAM's disruption of glycolysis intensifies the copper overload, triggering cuproptosis in cancer cells. Additionally, it alleviates immunosuppression and bolsters immune responses facilitated by the immunogenic cell death from cuproptosis, further potentiated by the immunostimulatory effect of M1 macrophage membranes. The outcome is a pronounced efficacy in curbing tumor growth and distant metastasis in squamous cell carcinoma and also in suppressing melanoma proliferation and lung metastasis. This research underscores the vital interaction among inhibiting glycolysis, enhancing sensitivity to cuproptosis, and activating immune responses, thereby paving a feasible and integrated pathway in cancer immunotherapy.
