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 tumor microenvironment (TME) of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC), particularly the role of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), contributes to therapeutic resistance. This study investigated whether ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD), a non-invasive physical modality, could reprogram the TME through modulation of TAMs and induction of ferroptosis. Transcriptomic profiling identified CSF-1 as a top target suppressed by UTMD, which was validated by ELISA, Western blot, and qRT-PCR. UTMD time-dependently inhibited CSF-1 expression and secretion, consequently attenuating PTC-induced M2 macrophage polarization as evidenced by decreased CD206
