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

CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (anti-CD19 CAR-T) cells have shown good therapeutic results in the treatment of CD19 + B cell acute lymphocytic leukemia and lymphoma. However, severe side reactions and cytotoxicity are great challenges in the application of anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is the main side effect of CAR-T cell treatment, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon γ (IFN-γ) are cytokines that play major roles in CRS. Therefore, we investigated double knockdown (KD) of IL-6 and IFN-γ as a potential strategy to manage anti-CD19 CAR-T cell-associated CRS. These improved anti-CD19 CAR-T cells therapy retained the advantages of the original anti-CD19 CAR-T cells and additionally reduced the release of cytokines from CAR-T cells and other immune cells. Moreover, this study presented a novel approach to abrogate CRS through IL-6 and IFN-γ KD, which may potentially inhibit the release of multiple cytokines from CAR-T cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), a model of CRS correlate with in vivo features of the CAR-T therapy, thereby reducing the impact of CRS, improving the safety of CAR-T cell treatment, reducing toxicities, and maintaining the function of CAR-T cells.
