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

objectiveTo develop and internally validate an interpretable machine-learning model using routine precollection variables to predict mononuclear cell (MNC) collection efficiency (CE) during leukapheresis for CAR-T manufacturing.

methodsThis retrospective study included 206 consecutive patients who underwent leukapheresis between 2022 and 2025. Candidate variables were screened with Pearson correlation, Boruta, recursive feature elimination, and variance-threshold filters. Six supervised algorithms were trained with nested cross-validation, using an inner fivefold loop for tuning and an outer tenfold loop repeated three times for performance estimation. Bootstrap resampling (1000 iterations) generated confidence intervals, and SHAP analysis was used for interpretation.

resultsExtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) showed the best continuous prediction performance, with an R

conclusionRoutine precollection variables estimated MNC CE with good internal validity and may support individualized leukapheresis planning before CAR-T manufacturing.
