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

Immune evasion mediated by the PD-L1 pathway remains a major hurdle in the effective treatment of cervical cancer (CC). While microRNAs (miRNAs) are known to critically regulate host immune responses, their specific roles in modulating the immunosuppressive microenvironment in CC remain largely elusive. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the scope, clinical relevance, and mechanistic actions of the novel miR-133b/CMTM6/PD-L1 axis in cervical cancer immune evasion. Through a comprehensive series of in vitro and in vivo assays, we evaluated the expression and function of miR-133b, CMTM6, and PD-L1 in CC tissues and cell lines. Our results revealed that miR-133b is significantly downregulated in CC, which strongly correlates with poor patient prognosis. Mechanistically, miR-133b directly targets CMTM6, thereby suppressing PD-L1 expression. In clinical CC tissues, miR-133b levels were negatively correlated with both CMTM6 and PD-L1. Utilizing an immune-competent murine syngeneic model, we demonstrated that miR-133b overexpression profoundly inhibited tumor growth. This tumor suppression was accompanied by enhanced intra-tumoral infiltration of CD4
