Finding the Sweet Spot for the Treatment of B Cell Malignancies.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The glycan profile of cells comprises a high variety of sugar moieties that are attached to proteins (glycoproteins) and lipids (glycolipids) via a process called 'glycosylation'. Cancer cells commonly carry aberrant glycans, which may be of interest for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, as well as the development of novel therapeutic strategies. This review focuses on the differential glycosylation patterns on malignant B cells, including both B cell lymphoma and leukemia. Well-known aberrant glycan profiles on malignant B cells include acquired high mannose N-glycans in the B cell receptor (BCR) of follicular lymphoma (FL), and increased expression of the glycosphingolipid Gb3/CD77 on Burkitt's lymphoma (BL). These structures can be exploited for therapy by using lectins that specifically recognize these patterns with intrinsic cytotoxic activity or in a drug-conjugate format. Furthermore, immunotherapy can be improved by modulating glycans, especially sialic acids. Targeting glycans for immunotherapy is also of interest for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, a relatively novel therapy that has been quite effective in various B cell malignancies. Thus, the glycan profile of malignant B cells harbors many opportunities for therapeutic targeting. It is anticipated that further in-depth glycan profiling will open up many more opportunities for the treatment of B cell malignancies.
