Effect of membrane-bound complement regulatory proteins on tumor cell sensitivity to complement-dependent cytolysis triggered by heterologous expression of the α-gal xenoantigen.
Article in Oncology letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Engineering malignant cells to express a heterologous α-gal antigen can induce heterograft hyperacute rejection, resulting in complement-dependent cytolysis (CDC) of tumor cells, which has been considered as a novel strategy for antitumor therapy. A549 cells engineered to express Galα1-3Galβ1-4GlcNAc-R (α-gal) epitope exhibited strong resistance to CDC treated by normal human serum (NHS) in a previous study. We hypothesized that the expression of membrane-bound complement regulatory proteins (mCRPs) decay accelerating factor (CD55) and protectin (CD59) influenced the efficacy of the α-gal/NHS-mediated antitumor effect to tumor cells
