Review in Cell & bioscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07450833 (Assessing the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Benfo-Oxythiamine), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

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.

Abstract

Lactate is a crucial product of cancer metabolism, creating an acidic environment that supports cancer growth and acts as a substrate for lactylation. Lactylation, a newly discovered epigenetic modification, plays a vital role in cancer cell signaling, metabolic reprogramming, immune response, and other functions. This review explores the regulation of lactylation, summarizes recent research on its role in cancers, and highlights its application in cancer drug resistance and immunotherapy. These insights aim to provide new avenues for targeting lactylation in cancer therapy.
