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

The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is a potential immunotherapy strategy to prevent immune escape in cancer cells. However, low immune infiltration and low antigen presentation in the tumor microenvironment (TME) have led to ineffective ICI immunotherapy in clinical studies. Although intratumoral injection of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonists was shown to improve the efficacy of ICIs by increasing the number of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), it has limited effects on metastatic or deep-seated tumors. To overcome this challenge, we developed CpG7909 (a TLR9 agonist) lipoplex using a cationic lipid formulation, which exhibited preferential accumulation in tumors and spleen following systemic administration, Combination immunotherapy with an anti-PD1 antibody and CpG7909 lipoplex significantly promoted the infiltration of CD8
