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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, accounting for 30-40% of newly diagnosed cases globally. Although the R-CHOP regimen effectively cures 60-70% of patients, 30-40% of patients relapse or develop resistance, highlighting the need for new biomarkers to improve prognosis and therapeutic strategies. Members of the Acyl-CoA thioesterase (ACOT) family are known to regulate various cellular processes, including lipid metabolism, inflammation, and cancer progression. However, the role of ACOT7 in DLBCL remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the expression and function of ACOT7 in DLBCL. Using public database analysis and functional experiments, we found that ACOT7 is highly expressed in DLBCL tissues and is associated with poor patient prognosis. Silencing ACOT7 in DLBCL cell lines significantly inhibited cell proliferation, invasion, and regulated genes associated with epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), while promoting apoptosis and G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, we identified sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2 (SREBF2) as a transcriptional regulator of ACOT7, demonstrating that SREBF2 upregulates ACOT7 expression and promotes DLBCL progression. Our findings suggest that the SREBF2-ACOT7 axis plays a critical role in DLBCL by promoting tumor cell growth, invasion, and survival. ACOT7 could serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for DLBCL, providing new insights into the molecular mechanisms of this aggressive lymphoma.
