T cells stimulated by CD40L positive leukemic blasts-pulsed dendritic cells meet optimal functional requirements for adoptive T-cell therapy.
Article in Leukemia, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Adoptive T-cell immunotherapy may provide complementary therapy for childhood B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). In this study, we have analyzed the functional characteristics of anti-BCP-ALL effector T cells generated by co-culturing T lymphocytes and dendritic cells (DC) from allogeneic human stem cell transplantation (HSCT) donors. After 21-day co-culture with DC pulsed with CD40L+ apoptotic BCP-ALL blasts, T cells presented with both effector and central memory phenotype, and showed high and specific cytotoxic activity against leukemic cells (average lysis = 77%), mostly mediated by CD8+ T cells. Noticeably, growth of CD4 T cells was maintained (45% of total cells), which actively produced Th1 cytokines (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL-2), but not IL-4, IL-5 and IL-10. Anti-BCP-ALL T cells expressed CD49d and CXCR4 (implicated in the recruitment to bone marrow), and CD62L and CCR7 (involved in the migration to lymphoid organs). In accordance with this profile, T cells significantly migrated in response to the chemokines CXCL12 and CCL19. In conclusion, stimulation of T cells with CD40L+BCP-ALL cells-loaded DC not only elicited the generation of potent and specific anti-leukemic cytotoxic effectors, but also the differentiation of specific and functional Th-1 CD4 lymphocytes. These effectors are fully equipped to reach leukemia-infiltrated tissues and have characteristics to support and orchestrate the anti-tumor immune-response.
