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

Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment, but its effectiveness in breast cancer remains suboptimal. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), a key component of the tumor microenvironment (TME), contribute significantly to immune evasion. In this study, we identified gamma-interferon-inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (IFI30) as a critical regulator of TAM function in breast cancer. IFI30 expression is upregulated in breast cancer via enhanced Histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) modification and promotes tumor progression and metastasis in an immune-dependent manner. Mechanistically, IFI30 in breast cancer cells recruits TAMs by activating the ATF3-CCL5 axis. Within macrophages, it promotes M2-like polarization and PD-L1 upregulation, fostering an immunosuppressive TME. Our findings established IFI30 as a promising therapeutic target for disrupting TAM-mediated immune suppression and enhancing breast cancer immunotherapy.
