Effectiveness of Amplified Natural Killer (ANK) Therapy for Adult T-cell Leukemia/Lymphoma (ATL) and Future Prospects of ANK Therapy.
Article in Cancer medicine journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Amplified Natural Killer (ANK) therapy is modified to increase the safety and efficacy of the original (LAK) immunotherapy. It is a method of removing natural killer (NK) cells from the patient's own blood, culturing and amplifying the NK cells, specifically increasing their ability to attack cancer and returning them for treatment. It is generally effective against all cancers. The two cases presented here and the other treated cases show that ANK therapy is very safe and effective against ATL. Further research suggests that ANK therapy, rather than chemotherapy, is likely to be the first-line therapy for ATL. In addition, low activity of NK cells means accumulation of bacterial load. Therefore, ANK therapy with high doses of activated NK cells may be effective not only for ATL and cancer, but also for patients with chronic bacterial and viral infections.
