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

Hematologic malignancies provide a suitable testing environment for cell-based immunotherapies, which were pioneered by the development of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. All types of cell-based therapies, from donor lymphocyte infusion to dendritic cell vaccines, and adoptive transfer of tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells, have been clinically translated for hematologic malignancies. The recent success of chimeric antigen receptor-modified T lymphocytes in B-cell malignancies has stimulated the development of this approach toward other hematologic tumors. Similarly, the remarkable activity of checkpoint inhibitors as single agents has created enthusiasm for potential combinations with other cell-based immune therapies. However, tumor cells continuously develop various strategies to evade their immune-mediated elimination. Meanwhile, the recruitment of immunosuppressive cells and the release of inhibitory factors contribute to the development of a tumor microenvironment that hampers the initiation of effective immune responses or blocks the functions of immune effector cells. Understanding how tumor cells escape from immune attack and favor immunosuppression is essential for the improvement of immune cell-based therapies and the development of rational combination approaches.
