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

objectivesAdoptive immunotherapy using donor-derived antigen-specific T-cells can prevent and treat infection after allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).

methodsWe treated 11 patients with a prophylactic infusion of 2 × 10

resultsT-cell products were successfully generated in all patients with 10 products responsive to 6 or 7 infections. T-cell infusions were associated with increases in antigen-experienced activated CD8

conclusionRapid reconstitution of immunity to a broad range of viral and fungal infections can be achieved using a multi-pathogen-specific T-cell product. The development of GVHD after T-cell infusion suggests that infection-specific T-cell therapy after allogeneic stem cell transplant should be combined with other strategies to reduce graft-versus-host disease.
