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

Endometrial cancer (EC) presents a major global health challenge due to its heterogeneity and complex pathophysiology. The tumor microenvironment (TME), comprising stromal cells, immune cells, endothelial cells, and non-cellular components, critically influences EC progression. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized our understanding of EC by revealing TME cellular heterogeneity and interactions. This review synthesizes recent scRNA-seq applications in EC, focusing on two key areas: ① Mapping transcriptional heterogeneity across major cellular components (epithelial, stromal, endothelial, and immune cells); ② Elucidating the factors driving tumor evolution, immune evasion, and differential immunotherapy response. Collectively, these scRNA-seq-derived insights into the dynamic TME ecosystem provide the foundation for translating basic discoveries toward clinical applications. Such advances could thereby promote TME-based personalized therapies and more accurate prognostic predictions.
