Strategies for the Development of NK Cell-Based Therapies for Cancer Treatment.
Review in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
CAR-T cell therapy is a promising method of cancer treatment, but it has some disadvantages. These disadvantages have led scientists to explore the use of safer CAR-NK cells and new genetic modifications in order to improve the effectiveness of CAR cells. In this paper, we analyze existing approaches to modifying CAR-NK cells and discuss the results of clinical trials involving CAR-NK therapies. Conventionally, approaches to NK cell modification can be divided into three main groups: strategies to enhance antitumor cytotoxicity, strategies to improve the survival of CAR-NK cells and prolong their persistence in the body, and strategies to increase the safety of CAR-NK cells. The effects of CAR-NK cells on different tumor types are presented, and the number of clinical trials involving CAR-NK cells has been increasing every year, with positive results so far. As of September 2025, all the trials are in the early 1-2 stages of research, and it is expected that the first CAR-NK product will be approved in the near future.
