Human NK Cells in Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Cancer Treatment.
Review in Cancers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Natural killer (NK) cells are phenotypically and functionally diverse lymphocytes with the ability to recognize and kill malignant cells without prior sensitization, and therefore, they have a relevant role in tumor immunosurveillance. NK cells constitute the main lymphocyte subset in peripheral blood in the first week after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although the role that NK cells play in allogenic HSCT settings has been documented for years, their significance and beneficial effects associated with the outcome after autologous HSCT are less recognized. In this review, we have summarized fundamental aspects of NK cell biology, such as, NK cell subset diversity, their effector functions, and differentiation. Moreover, we have reviewed the factors that affect autologous HSCT outcome, with particular attention to the role played by NK cells and their receptor repertoire in this regard.
