Immunotherapy strategies targeting tumor-associated macrophages and their mechanisms of action in tumor progression.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
The tumor microenvironment significantly influences the aggressive invasive characteristics of human solid tumors, with the infiltration of immune cells being a defining feature of tumor advancement. Among the diverse cell types present in the tumor microenvironment, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) stand out as crucial regulatory centers in the interplay between tumors and the immune system. Recent developments in single-cell sequencing technologies, combined with an expanding body of research, have revealed the functional diversity and heterogeneity of TAMs, as well as the mechanisms through which they interact within the tumor microenvironment. This indicates that TAMs could represent innovative targets for therapies aimed at tumors, thus promoting the creation of tailored anti-cancer strategies. This article provides a review of the various types of TAMs, their influence on tumor development and progression, their regulatory functions in tumor activities, and the progress in tumor immunotherapy that focuses on targeting TAMs.
