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 demonstrated significant efficacy in colorectal cancer (CRC), but its therapeutic effects remain limited in microsatellite stable (MSS) patients, indicating the critical role of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in regulating immune responses. Lipid rafts, dynamic membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol and sphingolipids, have emerged as potential targets for TIME remodeling through their integration of immune signal transduction, enrichment of cell death receptors, and regulation of immune cell functionality. This review outlines the pivotal mediating roles of lipid rafts in cellular survival, death, and tumor progression. Specifically, MSS-type CRC exhibits lipid raft structural remodeling driven by dysregulated lipid metabolism, which fosters multiple immune escape mechanisms through exosome-mediated immunosuppressive signaling, promotion of tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) M2 polarization, enhanced infiltration of regulatory T cells (Tregs), and functional exhaustion of effector cells, such as CD8
