Engineering Bacteria and Their Derivatives for Cancer Immunotherapy.
Review in BME frontiers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Leveraging bacteria for cancer immunotherapy has gradually attracted wide attention since the discovery of "Cloey's toxin." However, one of the persistent challenges for bacteria-based therapy is striking a balance between safety and immunogenicity. Genetically engineered bacteria with virulence factors removed could further enhance antitumor ability by integrating genetic elements. In addition, bacterial derivatives, including outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by bacterial secretion and nanovesicles synthesized by modification of OMVs, could enhance antitumor immunity while improving safety. This perspective discusses the unique advantages of engineered bacteria and their derivatives for immunotherapy, as well as the challenges that need to be overcome to achieve clinical translation.
