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

Overcoming barriers in solid tumor immunotherapy remains challenging, with adoptive T cell therapies limited by antigen loss, poor tumor infiltration, and T cell exhaustion. Here, we present a nanoengineered tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy using anti-PD-1 antibody (αPD-1)-conjugated ZIF-8 nanoparticles to effectively suppress pancreatic tumor growth. These nanoparticles release hyaluronidase (HAase) and decitabine (DEC) in acidic tumor microenvironments, promoting stroma degradation and C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) secretion, while retaining αPD-1 on TILs to prevent exhaustion. CCL5 recruits additional nanodrug-loaded TILs for further release of HAase and DEC, establishing a self-reinforcing infiltration loop. This approach increases TIL infiltration by 12-fold in immunodeficient mice and, in immunocompetent settings, mobilizes both exogenous TILs and endogenous CD8
