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

Immune therapy and tumor cell vaccination is a challenging option in prostate cancer therapy, especially as side effects rarely occur. This review highlights recent developments in vaccination therapy of prostate cancer. The FDA approved antigen presenting cell vaccine Sipuleucel-T is described and new strategies of immune therapy like RNA and peptide vaccination are discussed in detail. Currently the effect of prostate cancer vaccination has still limitations, at least partially due to the immune suppressive effects of the tumor microenvironment and regulatory T cells, which suppress the immune effector function. To overcome these hurdles the concept of immune checkpoint modulation, which has the aim to break tolerance mechanisms, is discussed. Potential clinical therapies of checkpoint modulation are outlined.
