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

Adoptive immunotherapy has emerged as a powerful approach to cure cancer and chronic infections. Currently, the generation of a massive number of T cells that provide long-lasting immunity is challenged by exhaustion and differentiation-associated senescence, which inevitably arise during in vitro cloning and expansion. To circumvent these problems, several studies have proposed an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-mediated rejuvenation strategy to revitalize the exhausted/senescent T cell clones. Because iPSC-derived cytotoxic T lymphocytes (iPSC-CTLs) generated via commonly used monolayer systems have unfavorable, innate-like features such as aberrant natural killer (NK) activity and limited replication potential, we modified the redifferentiation culture to generate CD8αβ
