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

Most colorectal cancers (CRCs) are insensitive to cancer immunotherapy due to the tumor-promoting activities and immunosuppressive effects of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which profoundly drive cancer progression. Here, we provide a treatment strategy targeting CAFs to remodel the structural and immune tumor microenvironment of CRC based on magnetic nanoparticles. These nanoparticles not only induce the enhanced ferroptosis of CAFs through the synergistic effect of iron and copper ions but also ameliorate the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, simultaneously breaking down physical obstructions and activating the immune system. Mechanistically, these nanoparticles regulate the intrinsic signaling pathways of CAFs and alter chemokine secretion to improve the maturation of dendritic cells and the activation and function of CD8
