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

Secondary central nervous system involvement (sCNSi) is a fatal complication of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), yet its molecular determinants remain poorly understood. To investigate the mechanisms underlying CNS-preferential dissemination, we established an in vivo DLBCL xenograft model using two representative cell lines, OCI-LY19 and Toledo, followed by transcriptomic profiling of lymphoma cells isolated from the brain, peripheral organs, and parental cultures. Transcriptomic analyses revealed gene signatures associated with CNS-preferential dissemination, which were further evaluated in RNA-seq data from diagnostic tissues of patients with (n = 19) or without (n = 16) sCNSi. CNS tropism of DLBCL cells was associated with increased expression of genes involved in PI3K-Akt-mTOR and ARF6 trafficking signaling and decreased expression of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor signaling. Patient-derived transcriptomes exhibited enrichment of pathways that were functionally related to the gene signatures observed in the xenograft model. These findings suggest that CNS-preferential dissemination in DLBCL is associated with coordinated signaling involving PI3K/ARF6 activation and suppression of S1P-mediated pathways, providing molecular insights with potential implications for risk stratification and therapeutic targeting in sCNSi.
