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

purpose of reviewThe B-cell lymphoma 6 transcriptional repressor is the most commonly involved oncogene in B-cell lymphomas. Sustained expression of B-cell lymphoma 6 causes malignant transformation of germinal center B cells. Understanding the mechanism of action of B-cell lymphoma 6 is crucial for the study of how aberrant transcriptional programming leads to lymphomagenesis and development of targeted antilymphoma therapy. RECENT

findingsIdentification of B-cell lymphoma 6 target genes indicates a critical role for B-cell lymphoma 6 in facilitating a state of physiological genomic instability required for germinal center B cells to undergo affinity maturation, and suggests its contribution to several additional cellular functions. The discovery of several layers of counterregulatory mechanisms reveals how B cells can control and fine-tune the potentially lymphomagenic actions of B-cell lymphoma 6. From the biochemical standpoint, B-cell lymphoma 6 can regulate distinct biological pathways through different cofactors. This observation explains how the biological actions of B-cell lymphoma 6 can be physiologically controlled through separate mechanisms and affords the means for improved therapeutic targeting. The fact that patients with B-cell lymphoma 6-dependent lymphoma can be identified on the basis of gene signatures suggests that therapeutic trials of B-cell lymphoma 6 inhibitors could be personalized to these individuals. SUMMARY: B-cell lymphoma 6 plays a fundamental role in lymphomagenesis and is an excellent therapeutic target for development of improved antilymphoma therapeutic regimens.
