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

Multidrug transporters, including multidrug resistance-1 (MDR1), are recognized chiefly for effluxing chemotherapeutic drugs out of tumor cells. However, they are also expressed in many normal cells and tissues, including lymphocytes, but their physiological role is less well-understood. Here, we investigated the role of MDR1 in tumor-specific CD8 T cells (TST), which are critical in antitumor immunity and key targets of immunotherapies. Using a clinically-relevant genetic liver cancer mouse model, we investigated the efflux dynamics of TST as they underwent activation, proliferation, and differentiation to dysfunctional states in tumor-bearing hosts. Surprisingly, we found that late-stage/terminally dysfunctional TST had the highest efflux capacity in both murine and human liver tumors. TST upregulated transcription of
