Advances in Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Natural Killer Cell Therapy.
Review in Cells, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Natural killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes of the innate immune system capable of killing virus-infected cells and/or cancer cells. The commonly used NK cells for therapeutic applications include primary NK cells and immortalized NK cell lines. However, primary NK cell therapy faces limitations due to its restricted proliferation capacity and challenges in stable storage. Meanwhile, the immortalized NK-92 cell line requires irradiation prior to infusion, which reduces its cytotoxic activity, providing a ready-made alternative and overcoming these bottlenecks. Recent improvements in differentiation protocols for iPSC-derived NK cells have facilitated the clinical production of iPSC-NK cells. Moreover, iPSC-NK cells can be genetically modified to enhance tumor targeting and improve the expansion and persistence of iPSC-NK cells, thereby achieving more robust antitumor efficacy. This paper focuses on the differentiation-protocols efforts of iPSC-derived NK cells and the latest progress in iPSC-NK cell therapy. Additionally, we discuss the current challenges faced by iPSC-NK cells and provide an outlook on future applications and developments.
