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

Neoantigens are tumor-specific antigens presented exclusively by cancer cells. These antigens are recognized as nonself by the host immune system, thereby eliciting an antitumor T-cell response. This response is significantly enhanced through neoantigen-based immunotherapies, such as personalized cancer vaccines. The repertoire of neoantigens is unique to each cancer patient, necessitating neoantigen prediction for designing patient-specific immunotherapies. This review presents the computational methods and data resources used for neoantigen prediction, as well as the prediction-associated challenges. Neoantigen prediction typically uses human leukocyte antigen typing, RNA-seq transcript quantification, somatic variant calling, peptide-major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) presentation prediction, and pMHC recognition prediction as the main computational steps. The immunoinformatics tools used for these steps and for the overall prediction of neoantigens are systematically summarized and detailed in this review.
