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

backgroundThis study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy with standard treatment for B-cell lymphoma, providing evidence-based support for the more efficient use of CAR-T cell immunotherapy.

methodsWe conducted a comprehensive literature search of high-quality randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on CAR-T therapy for B-cell lymphoma in the following databases: Wanfang, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP database, and PubMed, up to February 2024. The outcome measures included objective remission rate (ORR), complete remission rate (CRR), and incidence of adverse reactions. Subgroup analysis was performed based on the differences in co-stimulatory domains. Meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4 and Stata software.

resultsA total of five RCTs involving 1670 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that the CAR-T treatment group had significantly higher ORR (RR: 1.47, 95% CI 1.23-1.76, I

conclusionCAR-T cell immunotherapy demonstrates superior efficacy compared to standard therapy in treating B-cell lymphoma. However, CAR-T treatment can lead to adverse reactions such as CRS and NT. Infusion of an appropriate dose of CAR-T cells (e.g., 100 × 10
