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

Adoptive transfer of antiviral effector or memory CD8 T cells is a therapeutic option for preventing acute cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease after primary or recurrent infection in immunocompromised recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) aimed at curing hematopoietic malignancies. Preclinical research in murine models has demonstrated the power of CD8 T-cell-based preemptive immunotherapy and has encouraged clinical trials that gave promising results. The clinical evidence, however, is based primarily on statistical analyses indicating a reduced incidence of CMV-associated complications. Here, we will briefly review the data obtained from the murine model showing that CD8 T cells derived from CMV-immune donors and administered either as peptide-selected cytolytic T lymphocyte lines or after ex vivo purification by T-cell-receptor-specific cell sorting can indeed prevent CMV-mediated histopathology and multiple organ failure.
