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

High risk neuroblastoma is responsible for 15% of deaths in pediatric cancer patients. The introduction of anti-GD2 immunotherapy has significantly improved outcomes but there is still only approximately a 50% 5 year event-free-survival for these children and improvements in treatments are urgently required. Anti-GD2 immunotherapy uses the patients' own immune system to kill cancer cells. In particular, Natural Killer (NK) cells kill antibody coated tumor cells by a process called antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). However, our previous work has highlighted metabolic exhaustion of NK cells in circulating blood of adult cancer patients, identifying this as a potential therapeutic target. In this study, we investigated circulating NK cells in patients newly diagnosed with neuroblastoma. We found evidence of activation of NK cells
