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

backgroundOsteosarcoma patients with high propensity for metastasis and recurrence generally encounter a poor prognosis. Despite the extensive exploration of immunotherapy, particularly the anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) antibody, in clinical trials, the efficacy remains unsatisfactory. A more profound comprehension of the resistance mechanisms and the development of innovative therapeutic strategies is imperative.

methodsA screening was performed for drugs capable of upregulating major histocompatibility class I (MHC I) expression among clinically common drugs. The effects of the drug on both T cells and tumor cells, as well as its combination efficacy with anti-PD-1 antibody, were studied in vitro and in vivo osteosarcoma models. The molecular mechanisms underlying these biological processes were explored via RNA sequencing analysis.

resultsEtoposide was shown to upregulate the MHC I expression in osteosarcoma cells, thereby enhancing the cytotoxicity of CD8

conclusionsThis study revealed the molecular mechanism underlying etoposide-activated CD8
