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

Cell surface glycosylation has a variety of functions, and its dysregulation in cancer contributes to impaired signaling, metastasis and the evasion of the immune responses. Recently, a number of glycosyltransferases that lead to altered glycosylation have been linked to reduced anti-tumor immune responses: B3GNT3, which is implicated in PD-L1 glycosylation in triple negative breast cancer, FUT8, through fucosylation of B7H3, and B3GNT2, which confers cancer resistance to T cell cytotoxicity. Given the increased appreciation of the relevance of protein glycosylation, there is a critical need for the development of methods that allow for an unbiased interrogation of cell surface glycosylation status. Here we provide an overview of the broad changes in glycosylation at the surface of cancer cell and describe selected examples of receptors with aberrant glycosylation leading to functional changes, with emphasis on immune checkpoint inhibitors, growth-promoting and growth-arresting receptors. Finally, we posit that the field of glycoproteomics has matured to an extent where large-scale profiling of intact glycopeptides from the cell surface is feasible and is poised for discovery of new actionable targets against cancer.
