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

Assessment of functional tumor-specific T-cell responses in preclinical tumor models represents an important tool for successful translation of new immunotherapies to clinics. Usually, it requires a known tumor antigen target. Here, we describe the method to detect tumor-specific T cell after immunotherapies without a known antigen. Splenocytes, lymph node immune cells, or PBMCs are isolated from treated mice and stimulated with relevant tumor cells ex vivo before immunospot analysis of Granzyme B and interferon γ-positive T cells. The method is especially valuable for monitoring tumor-specific T cells after vaccination with various whole tumor vaccines or after in situ vaccination and other antigen agnostic immunotherapies, where no specific antigens are used.
