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

Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells, strongly inducers of T cell-mediated immune responses and, as such, broadly used as vaccine adjuvant in experimental clinical settings. DC are widely generated from human monocytes following in vitro protocols which require 5-7 days of differentiation with GM-CSF and IL-4 followed by 2-3 days of activation/maturation. In attempts to shorten the vaccine's production, Fast-DC protocols have been developed. Here we reported a Fast-DC method in compliance with good manufacturing practices for the production of autologous mature dendritic cells loaded with antigens derived from whole tumor lysate, suitable for the immunotherapy in glioblastoma patients. The feasibility of generating Fast-DC pulsed with whole tumor lysate was assessed using a series of small-scale cultures performed in parallel with clinical grade large scale standard method preparations. Our results demonstrate that this Fast protocol is effective only in the presence of PGE
