[Prognostic significance of immune cell infiltrates in tumor pathology].
Review in Der Pathologe, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe quantity, distribution, activation status, cytokine profile, and spatial distribution of tumor-infiltrating immune cells have prognostic value and may be predictive of response to immunotherapies.
objectivesA survey of relevant immune cell populations including their prognostic significance in the most common types of tumors.
methodsNonsystematic assessment and a discussion of studies that were conducted to estimate the prognostic significance of certain immune cell subsets and the methodical approaches used.
resultsFor many tumor entities, prognostically favorable and unfavorable immune cell populations can be differentiated. However, nonspecific cell markers that may partly summarize antithetic immune cell subsets can be employed. Differences in sampling procedures and the determination of cut-off levels further limit the comparability of the studies carried out so far.
conclusionThe phenotypic and functional heterogeneity of tumor-infiltrating immune cells requires the use of cell subset-specific antibodies and antibody combinations. Furthermore, harmonized assessment routines, validation studies, and meta-analyses are important prerequisites for potential diagnostic implementation.
