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 made a breakthrough in the treatment of advanced bladder cancer, but the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) leads to unsatisfactory clinical outcome. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging approach to synergistically enhance tumor immunotherapy, but its therapeutic efficacy suffers from insufficient distribution of photothermal agents and tumor thermo-resistance. Here, we have developed engineered T cell membrane coated triptolide-loaded polydopamine nanoparticles (ETM@PT), which exhibited excellent biocompatibility and tumor targeting properties. ETM@PT decreased heat shock proteins expression, inhibited cancer associated fibroblasts activation and downregulated MMP9 levels, demonstrating superior tumor suppression effects in multiple mouse bladder cancer models and synergistically enhancing anti-PD1 immunotherapy effectively. RNA sequencing further revealed the molecular mechanism of ETM@PT activating immune-related pathways and amplifying antitumor immunity. This strategy effectively reversed thermo-resistance and reprogrammed the immunosuppressive TME, representing a promising approach to clinical advanced bladder cancer therapy.
