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

In recent years, the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells has emerged as a promising immunotherapy in multiple diseases. CAR-T cells are T cells genetically modified to express a surface receptor, known as CAR, for the targeting of cognate antigens on specific cells. The effectiveness of CAR-T cell therapy in hematologic malignancies including leukemia, myeloma, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has led to consider its use as a potential avenue of treatment for autoimmune diseases. However, broadening the use of CAR-T cell therapy to a large spectrum of autoimmune conditions is challenging particularly because of the possible development of side effects including cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity. The design of CAR therapy that include additional immune cells such as double-negative T cells, γδ T cells, T regulatory cells and natural killer cells has shown promising results in preclinical studies and clinical trials in oncology, suggesting a similar potential utility in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. This review examines the mechanisms, efficacy, and safety of CAR approaches with a focus on their use in autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren's syndrome, systemic sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, lupus nephritis and other autoimmune diseases. Advantages and disadvantages as compared to CAR-T cell therapy will also be discussed.
