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

Photo-immunotherapy combines phototherapy and immunotherapy, which can eliminate primary tumors and induce host immunity to control distant metastases. However, the effectiveness may be attenuated by the tumor defense mechanisms associated with glutamine metabolism regulation. In this work, a self-assembled stimulator was prepared for glutamine-starvation-potentiated photo-immunotherapy, which is composed of telaglenastat as the glutaminase inhibitor, chlorin e6 (Ce6) as the photosensitizer, and interferon stimulatory DNA (ISD). Ce6 transfers energy from light to molecular oxygen, generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Telaglenastat assists in the downregulation of endogenous glutathione. Thus, ROS neutralization can be prevented, and the photodynamic therapy effect is enhanced. Additionally, the cGAS-STING signaling pathway activated by ISD remodels the tumor microenvironment by polarizing M2-type tumor-associated macrophages into M1, which finally enhances immunogenic cell death. The prepared nanomedicine combines glutamine starvation and a photo-immunotherapy strategy, offering new insights into cancer treatment.
