Early prediction of ICANS using CRS characteristics in B-cell lymphoma patients receiving CAR-T therapy.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2026. 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
Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) is a serious early adverse event of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy. ICANS typically occurs concurrently with or follows cytokine release syndrome (CRS), suggesting CRS can be considered the primary risk factor for ICANS onset. Therefore, CRS characteristics in an individual patient may predict their risk for subsequently developing ICANS. We analyzed 154 patients with B cell lymphoma treated with commercial CAR-T products between 2020 and 2024; 38 patients (24.7%) developed ICANS after CRS. The cohort was split into a derivation set and a validation set. In the derivation cohort, univariate analysis identified two CRS-related factors strongly associated with ICANS: CRS onset within 24h and grade 2-4 CRS by day 3. Using these two variables, we created a simple predictive model that stratified patients into high-, intermediate-, and low-risk groups, with ICANS incidences of 47.4%, 31.0%, and 8.2%, respectively. The validation cohort confirmed this trend. These findings suggest that early CRS characteristics provide a practical, clinically applicable method for estimating ICANS risk and may support timely management decisions in CAR-T therapy.
