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

ICIs resistance presents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Circulating extracellular vesicles circRNAs are promising biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and treatment. This study aimed to determine the oncogenic role of circulating extracellular vesicles circ_PPAPDC1A in ICIs resistance diagnosis and prognostic analysis of NSCLC. We used a co-culture system of NSCLC cells and T cells, and a mice xenograft assay, to evaluate the effect of circ_PPAPDC1A on anti-PD-1 antitumor activity. A multicenter cohort study of 40 patients analyzed the associations between extracellular vesicles circ_PPAPDC1A and ICIs resistance. In vitro, circ_PPAPDC1A reduced the sensitivity of NSCLC cells to ICIs by promoting proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis. In vivo, circ_PPAPDC1A promoted NSCLC progression and induced CD8
