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, chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy has made considerable progress in the treatment of glioblastoma. The aim of this study was to comprehensively explore the prospects and future trends of CAR-T immunotherapy for glioblastoma through systematic bibliometric analysis. Publications pertaining to glioblastoma and CAR-T immunotherapy from 2008 to 2024 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection. Utilizing VOSviewer (version 1.6.20), CiteSpace (version 6.3.R1), and R 4.3.3, this study concentrated on evaluating contributions from countries, institutions, authors, and journals, while also identifying research hotspots and emerging trends. A total of 570 publications were identified, demonstrating an annual growth rate of 31.71%. The USA led the field with 269 publications, followed by China (113). The University of Pennsylvania, Harvard University, and the University of California System emerged as the most prolific institutions.
