A set of genes associated with the interferon-γ response of lung cancer patients undergoing α-galactosylceramide-pulsed dendritic cell therapy.
Article in Cancer science, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells possess potent antitumor effects after activation with a specific glycolipid antigen, α-galactosylceramide (αGalCer). A phase I-II clinical study of αGalCer-pulsed dendritic cells (DC) to activate endogenous iNKT cells was previously performed in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this clinical trial, the patients with increased interferon-γ (IFN-γ) production (>two-fold) in PBMC after the DC treatment (good responder group) experienced a prolonged overall survival time in comparison with the poor responder group. We extended the previous study and performed a microarray-based gene expression analysis using peripheral blood CD56(+) cells and CD56(-) CD3(+) T cells from patients enrolled in the above-mentioned clinical study. We sought to identify any biomarkers associated with the immune responses in this immunotherapy trial. Six patient samples corresponding to three subjects in the good responder group and three subjects in the poor responder group were included in the microarray analysis. Genes differentially expressed between pre-treatment and post-treatment samples were selected for analysis. Subsequently, genes that were only expressed in the good responder group or poor responder group were chosen. After these procedures, four selected genes were quantified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction in another eight patient samples, and two genes, LTB4DH and DPYSL3, were confirmed to be candidate genes for the predictor of a good immune response. The expression profile of these two genes may be associated with the responsiveness of IFN-γ production after αGalCer-pulsed DC treatment.
