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

Despite effective first-line regimens, some patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) still experience relapse or resistance, emphasizing the urgent need for innovative treatment approaches. Cytidine triphosphate synthase 1 (CTPS1) is a key regulatory and rate-limiting enzyme for de novo nucleotide synthesis pathway. However, the role of CTPS1 in DLBCL and its potential therapeutic value remain unknown. We found that high levels of CTPS1 were associated with poor prognosis in patients with DLBCL. The single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed that phospholipid metabolism and mitophagy-related pathways were activated in DLBCL cells with high CTPS1 expression. Mechanistically, CTPS1 up-regulated the expression of choline/ethanolamine phosphotransferase 1 (CEPT1) by increasing CTP availability, thereby reprogramming glycerophospholipid metabolism. The glycerophospholipids synthesized by CEPT1 maintained mitochondrial homeostasis and promoted BCL2 interacting protein 3 (BNIP3)-mediated mitophagy, ultimately driving the DLBCL progression. Moreover, highly selective CTPS1 inhibitor R80 could reduce the viability of DLBCL cells.
