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

Children with high-risk neuroblastoma (NB) have a poor clinical outcome. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate different strategies for immunotherapy of high-risk NB based on vaccination with antigen-loaded dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are professional antigen-presenting cells with the ability to induce antitumor T-cell responses. We have compared DCs either loaded with apoptotic tumor cells or transfected with mRNA from the NB cell line HTB11 SK-N-SH, for their capacity to induce T-cell responses in vitro. Monocyte-derived DCs from healthy donors were loaded with tumor-derived antigens in the form of apoptotic cells or mRNA, matured and used to prime autologous T cells in vitro. After 1 week, T-cell responses against antigen-loaded DCs were measured by ELISPOT assay. DCs loaded with apoptotic NB cells or transfected with NB-cell mRNA were both able to efficiently activate autologous T cells. Both T cells of the CD8+ and CD4+ subset were activated. T cells activated by NB mRNA transfected DCs extensively crossreacted with DCs loaded with apoptotic NB cells and vice versa. The results indicate that loading of DCs with apoptotic NB cells or transfection with tumor mRNA represent promising strategies for development of individualized cancer vaccines/cancer gene therapy in treatment of NB.
