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

While much attention has been focused on the direct cytotoxic effects of anticancer agents on tumor cells, emerging evidence suggests that the induction of immunogenic cell death (ICD) and the consequent remodeling of the tumor microenvironment may critically influence overall therapeutic efficacy. Sorafenib, a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, can induce ferroptosis and thereby trigger ICD, offering the potential to overcome chemoresistance and coordinate systemic antitumor immunity. However, its therapeutic efficacy in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains limited, attributing to its low efficiency in inducing ICD. Herein, this study investigates combined sodium butyrate (NaB) and sorafenib in liposomal co-delivery system (LipNaB@Sor) at an optimal 1:1 M ratio in CRC. LipNaB@Sor synergistically amplifies sorafenib-induced ferroptosis and consequent ICD, concurrently activating antitumor immunity through dendritic cell maturation and cytotoxic CD8
