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

Tumor immunotherapy, capable of inducing both cellular and humoral immune responses, is an attractive treatment strategy for cancer. It has been reported that the inactivation of cell-mediated immunity by hyper-activation of humoral immunity-referred to as immune deviation-does not inhibit tumor growth. We investigated the ability of several adjuvants to elicit Thomsen-Friedenreich (T/Tn)-specific humoral immunity while avoiding immune deviation and conferring protection against tumorigenesis. T/Tn (9:1) antigen was purified from blood type O erythrocytes donated by healthy Korean volunteers. Immunization was performed using T/Tn only, T/Tn mixed with Freund's adjuvant (T/Tn+FA), keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)-conjugated T/Tn mixed with FA (KLH-T/Tn+FA), or oxidized mannan-conjugated T/Tn mixed with FA (ox-M-T/Tn+FA). Anti-T/Tn antibodies were generated in the T/Tn+FA, KLH-T/Tn+FA, and ox-M-T/Tn+FA groups. The antibody level was highest in the KLH-T/Tn+FA group. Mice immunized with ox-M-T/Tn+FA showed specific complement-dependent cytotoxicity, and were protected against T/Tn-positive mammary adenocarcinoma cell challenge, although anti-T/Tn antibody levels were the highest in the KLH-T/Tn+FA group. These results demonstrate that an ox-M-conjugated T/Tn vaccine mixed with FA can promote cellular immunity while moderating the humoral immune response, thereby effectively inhibiting tumor growth.
