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

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a pivotal role in myeloid cell differentiation toward immunosuppressive phenotypes, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Through integrated single-nucleus RNA sequencing, EV proteomics, and phenotype validation, we identified NOD1, a pattern recognition receptor (PRR), as a critical mediator of EV-driven macrophage differentiation. Clinically, NOD1 overexpression in ccRCC tissues correlated with increased immunosuppressive macrophage infiltration, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy resistance, and poor prognosis. Mechanistically, ccRCC-EVs enriched with SCRIB, a Rho GTPase activator, triggered sustained NOD1 activation in macrophages via Rho GTPase signalling. Crucially, NOD1 signalling converged on interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), whose expression might be dynamically regulated through NF-κB activation and MITF suppression. Furthermore, inhibition of NOD1 promotes the therapeutic effect of ICIs in vivo. Our findings unveil a novel EV-mediated immune evasion mechanism in ccRCC and propose the SCRIB-NOD1-IRF4 axis as a therapeutic target to restore anti-tumour immunity.
