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
Although killer Ig-like receptor ligands (KIR-L) mismatch has been associated with alloreactive natural killer cell activity and potent graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect among adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), its role among children with AML receiving cord blood transplantation (CBT) has not been determined. We conducted a retrospective study using a nationwide registry of the Japanese Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy. Patients who were diagnosed with de novo non-M3 AML and who underwent their first CBT in remission between 2000 and 2021 at under 16 years old were included. A total of 299 patients were included; 238 patients were in the KIR-L match group, and 61 patients were in the KIR-L mismatch group. The cumulative incidence rates of neutrophil recovery, platelet engraftment, and acute/chronic graft-versus-host disease did not differ significantly between the groups. The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was 69.8% in the KIR-L match group and 74.0% in the KIR-L mismatch group (p = 0.490). Stratification by CD34 + cell dose into four groups revealed a significant correlation between CD34 + cell dose and EFS in the KIR-L mismatch group (p = 0.006) but not in the KIR-L match group (p = 0.325). According to our multivariate analysis, KIR-L mismatch with a high CD34 + cell dose (≥ median dose) was identified as an independent favorable prognostic factor for EFS (hazard ratio = 0.19, p = 0.029) and for the cumulative incidence of relapse (hazard ratio = 0.09, p = 0.021). Our results suggested that higher CD34 + cell doses are crucial for achieving a potent GVL effect in the context of KIR-L-mismatched CBT.
