Application Value and Research Frontiers of Immunotherapy in Glioblastoma: A Bibliometric and Visualized Analysis.
Review in Oncology research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) prognosis has seen little improvement over the past two decades. While immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, its impact on GBM remains limited. To characterize the evolving research landscape and identify future directions in GBM immunotherapy, we conducted a comprehensive bibliometric review. Methods: All literature related to immunotherapy in GBM from 1999 to 2024 was collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. CtieSpace and VOSviewer were used to conduct bibliometric analysis and visualize the data. Results: Bibliometric analysis identified 5038 publications authored by 23,335 researchers from 4699 institutions across 96 countries/regions, published in 945 journals. The United States produced the highest number of publications, while Switzerland achieved the highest average citation rate. Duke University led in institutional output and citations. John H Sampson was the most productive author, and Roger Stupp was the most cited. Conclusions: There has been a growing interest in GBM immunotherapy over past decades. The United States is the dominant contributor. CAR-T therapy represents the primary research focus. Emerging strategies like chimeric antigen receptor-modified natural killer (CAR-NK) cells, chimeric antigen receptor-engineered macrophages (CAR-M), and cytomegalovirus-specific T cell receptor (CMV-TCR) T cells are gaining prominence, aiming to address limitations in antigen recognition inherent to CAR-T therapy for GBM.
