Large scale quantification of natural killer cell-induced apoptosis in patient-derived organoids reveals intratumoral response heterogeneity.
Article in NPJ precision oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Intratumoral heterogeneity drives immunotherapy resistance, hindering clinical efficacy. Functional assays that capture heterogeneous responses to immunotherapies remain limited. Here, we present a 3D live imaging assay using patient-derived ovarian cancer organoids to quantify natural killer (NK) cell-induced apoptosis across hundreds of individual organoids. Our assay reveals inter- and intratumor response heterogeneity and detects rare populations unresponsive to NK cytotoxicity, enabling the study of subclonal immune responses and underlying mechanisms.
