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

Despite being hailed as a significant advancement in cancer treatment, immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has not yielded favorable outcomes in colorectal cancer, both in approximately 85% of cases characterized by microsatellite stability (MSS) and approximately 50% of microsatellite instability (MSI) cases. How ICB efficiency in colorectal cancer treatment can be improved remains unclear. Here, we identify a new immunoregulatory long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) gene named lncRNA of IFN-γ-signaling suppressor (LISS). LISS expression is increased in colorectal cancers and is linked to poor prognosis, as well as a high CD8+ score. Functional studies reveal that LISS impairs T cell-mediated cytotoxicity, regardless of MSS/MSI status. Mechanistically, LISS interacts directly with the kinase regulatory domain in calmodulin-dependent kinase (CamK)IIγ through a microdomain containing two independent RNA stem-loops. This interaction prevents the binding and phosphorylation of its substrate signal transducer and activator of transcription1 (STAT1) at serine(S)727, a modification necessary for optimal activation of STAT1 and the subsequent major histocompatibility complex I (MHC-I) gene expression. Analysis of human colorectal cancer samples reveals significant inverse correlations between LISS and pS-STAT1 or MHC-I. The knock-in of LISS in intestinal epithelium promotes adenoma development in Apc
