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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesChronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity, underscoring the need for reliable biomarkers to improve diagnosis and risk stratification. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent promising liquid biopsy candidates because they reflect the molecular profile of their cells of origin. In CLL, CD200 is a well-established marker of tumor cells; its expression on EVs and its role as a CLL biomarker were poorly characterized. This study investigated the diagnostic and prognostic value of serum EVs in CLL.

methodsSerum EVs were isolated from 83 patients with CLL and 20 healthy subjects (HS). EV morphology, size, and concentration were assessed by transmission electron microscopy and nanoparticle tracking analysis. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the expression of CD19, CD20, and CD200 on EVs, while digital PCR quantified EV-associated miR-93-5p, miR-125b-5p, miR-150-5p, and miR-484.

resultsCompared with HS, CLL patients showed increased total EV counts and higher levels of CD19

conclusionsMultiparametric profiling identified distinct quantitative, phenotypic, and molecular features of CLL-derived EVs and revealed CD200 as a novel EV-associated biomarker. These findings support the clinical utility of serum EVs as a new valuable approach for CLL diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment prediction.
