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 epigenetic silencing or remarkably diminished expression of STING in cancer cells, along with the structural and functional impairment of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus, represents a unique mechanism of tumor immune escape and poses an important challenge for STING-targeted therapies. Here, we develop a cell membrane-derived nanodisc system (ND-cGAMP-HP; HP, heparin), which is capable of presenting activated STING proteins in their native form by means of cell membrane-directed display and biological self-assembly techniques. It can directly introduce activated STING protein to tumor cells and circumvent the translocation process between the ER and Golgi apparatus, selectively activating the IFN-I signaling pathway without initiating the inflammation-related pathway NF-κB. ND-cGAMP-HP triggers potent cellular immune responses and remodels the tumor immune microenvironment. Moreover, it augments immune memory by promoting the differentiation of TCF1
