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

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy has produced impressive clinical responses in patients with B-cell malignancies. Critical to the success of CAR-T cell therapies is the achievement of robust gene transfer into T cells mediated by viral vectors such as gamma-retroviral vectors. However, current methodologies of retroviral gene transfer rely on spinoculation and the use of retronectin, which may limit the implementation of cost-effective CAR-T cell therapies. Herein, a low-cost, tunable, macroporous, alginate scaffold that transduces T cells with retroviral vectors under static condition is described. CAR-T cells produced by macroporous scaffold-mediated viral transduction exhibit >60% CAR expression, retain effector phenotype, expand to clinically relevant cell numbers, and eradicate CD19
