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

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is often aggressive and life-threatening with limited curative options. Immunotherapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell approaches are under investigation, but high levels of disease heterogeneity remain a major hurdle to achieving durable responses. Targeting of multiple antigens may ensure complete immunological coverage of leukaemic blast populations, but such antigens are often also present on healthy haematopoietic populations. To address likely aplasia, strategies can be designed to bridge CAR T-cell therapies to allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT), as demonstrated in recent anti-CD7 CAR T-cell studies. Here we report that monotherapy using base edited "universal" donor CAR T cells against CD33, CLL-1, or CD7 delivered inhibition of AML in immunodeficient mice when antigen expression was homogenous, but combined use of BE-CAR33 and BE-CARCLL-1 T cells was required to address heterogenous CLL-1
