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

With the development of cancer immunotherapy that may activate T cells, a practical and quantitative method to improve monitoring and/or prediction of immunological response of patients as a predictive biomarker is of importance. To examine possible biomarkers for a therapeutic cancer vaccine containing a mixture of three epitope peptides derived from cell division-associated 1, lymphocyte antigen 6 complex locus K and insulin-like growth factor-II mRNA-binding protein 3, T-cell receptor β (TCRβ) repertoires of blood samples from 24 patients with human leukocyte antigen-A*2402-positive non-small cell lung cancer were characterized prior to and following 8 weeks of the cancer vaccine treatment, by applying a next-generation sequencing method. It was identified that 14 patients with overall survival (OS) times of ≥12 months had significantly lower TCRβ diversity indexes in samples prior to treatment, compared with 10 patients who succumbed within 1 year (P=0.03). In addition, patients with a high level of activated CD8
