Loss-of-function of the hippo transducer TAZ reduces mammary tumor growth through a myeloid-derived suppressor cell-dependent mechanism.

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.
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
TAZ, one of the key effectors in the Hippo pathway, is often dysregulated in breast cancer, leading to cancer stemness, survival, and metastasis. However, the mechanistic bases of these tumor outcomes are incompletely understood and even less is known about the potential role played by the non-malignant cellular constituents of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we revealed an inverse correlation between TAZ expression and survival in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but not other subtypes of breast cancer. We found that TAZ knockdown in two murine TNBC tumor cell line models significantly inhibited tumor growth and metastasis in immune competent but not immune deficient hosts. RNA-seq analyses identified substantial alterations in immune components in TAZ knockdown tumors. Using mass cytometry analysis, we found that TAZ-deficiency altered the immune landscape of the TME leading to significant reductions in immune suppressive populations, namely myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and macrophages accompanied by elevated CD8
