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

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells display important properties that could bridge the innate and adaptive immunity, and they have been shown to play key roles in cancer immunotherapy. However, administration of iNKT cell agonist αGalCer fails to induce sustained antitumor immunity due to the rapid anergy induction after an initial strong activation. To this end, we have designed a recombinant CD1d protein that is fused to an anti-TAA scFv, which is able to recruit iNKT cells to the tumor site and induce tumor regression. Importantly, recombinant CD1d fusion proteins loaded with α-GalCer demonstrated sustained activation of iNKT cells upon repeated injections and superior tumor control, as compared to α-GalCer treatment.
