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

Cancer immunotherapy aims to boost T cell responses against tumor cells. However, a large fraction of patients with cancer exhibit intrinsic or acquired resistance to immunotherapy. To better understand resistance mechanisms in tumor cells, we used CRISPR-Cas9 whole-genome screening to uncover tumor-specific genes that influence sensitivity to T cell killing. Among the top hits, we identified the transcription factor zinc-finger protein X-linked (Zfx). Zfx knockout tumor cells are resistant to T cell killing both
