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

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a dynamic and constantly evolving milieu surrounding cancer cells, comprising numerous components that influence tumor growth. The Carcinoembryonic Antigen-Related Cell Adhesion Molecule (CEACAM) family has been found to be abnormally expressed in various cancers, and recent studies have highlighted its critical role in shaping and regulating the TME. Several antibody drugs targeting the CEACAM family have been developed over the last years. However, due to the physiological expression of CEACAMs in normal tissues, most of these targeted agents have yielded unsatisfactory clinical trial outcomes, characterized by significant toxicity and limited efficacy. In view of this, enhancing therapeutic efficacy while reducing adverse effects has become a focal point of current research. This review systematically summarizes the structural features of the CEACAM family and the intrinsic mechanistic differences underlying their tumor-promoting effects, and discusses the limitations of existing clinical drugs. Based on antibody optimization strategies, we propose a conceptual framework of "dual-recognition" antibodies and elaborate on precision targeting approaches at three levels-epitope, molecular, and environmental-to provide directional guidance for future investigations.
