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

The poor prognosis of patients with recurrent or refractory T cell malignancies emphasizes the need for improved immunotherapies. CD5 is a characteristic marker of malignant T cells and is expressed on almost all normal T cells. Therefore, for treating T cell malignancies, focusing on natural killer (NK) cells lacking CD5 expression may elicit a better safety profile than that by T cell-based therapies. We generate a CD5-targeted NK cell engager (NKCE) through the specific binding of CD16a nanobody and a high-affinity anti-CD5 antibody. Its antitumor potency is demonstrated in vitro. After incorporating interleukin (IL)-15Rα/IL-15, the modified tri-NKCE exhibits stronger antitumor efficacy against CD5
