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

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T-cell therapy has revolutionized cancer immune therapy. However, challenges remain including increasing efficacy, reducing adverse events and increasing accessibility. Use of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) technology can effectively perform various functions such as precise integration, multi-gene editing, and genome-wide functional regulation. Additionally, CRISPR screening using large-scale guide RNA (gRNA) genetic perturbation provides an unbiased approach to understanding mechanisms underlying anti-cancer efficacy of CAR T-cells. Several emerging CRISPR tools with high specificity, controllability and efficiency are useful to modify CAR T-cells and identify new targets. In this review we summarize potential uses of the CRISPR system to improve results of CAR T-cells therapy including optimizing efficacy and safety and, developing universal CAR T-cells. We discuss challenges facing CRISPR gene editing and propose solutions highlighting future research directions in CAR T-cell therapy.
