Interleukins 18 and 21: biology, mechanisms of action, toxicity, and clinical activity.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Interleukins 18 and 21 have been described, and the effect of each upon immune response and experimental tumors in animals has been the subject of much recent work. Both interleukins have shown antitumor effects in animals, which in some models are striking for their duration, specificity, and ability to protect against rechallenge with the same tumor. These characteristics suggest immunologic involvement in the antitumor response, and several papers suggest involvement of both innate and adaptive immune mechanisms. Recent early phase I clinical trials in human cancer patients have demonstrated evidence of clinical response. This review discusses the biology, preclinical animal tumor model data, and early clinical trial findings.
