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

Chimeric antigen receptor-engineered NK cells targeting mesothelin (MSLN CAR-NK) have emerged as promising off-the-shelf immunotherapeutics for multiple malignancies. However, their clinical translation remains constrained by inefficient cytotoxic potency and limited persistence. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a metabolic modulator known to enhance immune cell functionality, in augmenting MSLN CAR-NK cell efficacy against ovarian cancer (OC). Through systematic evaluation, we found that NMN supplementation significantly enhanced CAR-NK cell activation marker expression (CD69, NKG2D), degranulation capacity (CD107a
