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
objectiveTo investigate whether modification with IL-21 and CCL19 enhances killing and tumor-infiltrating efficiency of NKP30 CAR-T cells in lung cancer.
methodsThe modified IL-21-CCL19 NKP30 CAR-T cells expressing IL-21 and CCL19 fusion gene was constructed based on NKP30 CAR-T cells and stimulated with CD3CD28 antibodies and IL-2. The immunophenotype and migration of the cells in the presence of IL-21 were investigated using flow cytometry and migration experiments. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and sphere formation assays were used to assess the killing and infiltration capabilities of CAR-T cells, and the secretion levels of IFN-γ, IL-21 and CCL19 were determined with enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT) and ELISA. A zebrafish model bearing HCG-27 cell xenograft was established by microinjection of the tumor cells into the yolk sac followed 24 h later by injection of the immune cells at the same site, and the fluorescence signals were captured using a fluorescent microscopy.
resultsThe NKP30 ligand B7H6, which was almost undetectable in normal tissues and blood cells, was highly expressed (over 90%) in lung cancer cells. Compared with NKP30 CAR-T cells and conventional T cells, IL-21-CCL19 NKP30 CAR-T cells exhibited stronger proliferative and migration capabilities with the formation of central memory T cells. The reduced expressions of CTLA4 and PD1 in the constructed cells resulted in enhanced killing efficiency against lung cancer cells accompanied by significantly increased production of IFN-γ, IL-21 and CCL19. In the zebrafish models, CAR-T cells exhibited stronger cytotoxicity and proliferative abilities than typical T cells, but these differences were not statistically significant between the two CAR-T cells.
conclusionModification of NKP30 CAR-T cells with IL-21 and CCL19 facilitates their access into solid tumors for more effective tumor cell killing while producing a large number of memory T cells.
