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

γδ T cells employ dual recognition strategies that integrate innate and adaptive immune sensing through NK receptors (NKRs) and γδ-TCRs in cancer immunity. Through the coordinated use of clonotypic γδ-TCRs and germline-encoded NKRs, γδ T cells recognize malignant cells in an MHC-unrestricted manner and exert potent cytotoxic and immunomodulatory functions. In this review, we discuss how activating and inhibitory NKRs-including NKG-2D, natural cytotoxicity receptors, CD16, NKG-2A, and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors-are expressed across major human γδ T cell subsets and how their signals are integrated with γδ-TCRs. We highlight subset-specific differential utilization of NKRs in circulating Vδ2 and tissue-resident Vδ1 γδ T cells, context-dependent integration of γδ-TCR and NKR signaling within the tumor microenvironment, and emerging implications for γδ T cell-based cancer immunotherapy.
