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

Lymphoma continues to pose a serious challenge to global health, underscoring the urgent need for new therapeutic strategies. Recently, the gut microbiome has been shown to play a potential role in regulating immune responses and influencing cancer progression. However, its molecular mechanisms of action in lymphoma remain poorly understood. This study investigates the antiproliferative and apoptotic activities of gut microbiota-derived metabolites, specifically nisin (N) and urolithin B (UB), individually and in combination 7:3 (5750 μM), against the human lymphoma cell line HKB-11. Comprehensive evaluations were performed using Alamar Blue viability assays, combination index (CI) analyses, reactive oxygen species (ROS) quantification, flow cytometry for apoptosis detection, and advanced bottom-up proteomics analyses. N and UB exhibited potent antiproliferative activity, with the 7:3 combination demonstrating strong synergistic effects (CI < 1), significantly enhancing apoptosis (
