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

p53 is a critical tumor suppressor gene that inhibits cancer development by regulating cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, DNA repair, and metabolism. However, recent studies examining TP53 mutations in cancer immunotherapy have yielded inconsistent results, likely due to differences in tumor mutational burden (TMB) and the context-dependent roles of specific p53 mutants. In this study, we assessed the function of G242V and S258I Trp53 mutations in MC38 cells in the context of immunotherapy by generating Trp53 deletion and observed significantly enhanced responses to anti-PD-1 therapy. Trp53-null tumors showed increased CD8
