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

Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is an epigenetic regulator that controls the normal biology of germinal B cells. Overexpression or mutation of EZH2 is associated with malignant transformation in a number of B-cell malignancies; thus, EZH2 inhibitors are an attractive therapeutic option for these targets. Several EZH2 inhibitors have entered clinical trials, but there remains an important question as to how EZH2 inhibitor mechanism of action differs in patients with mutant and wild-type EZH2. This review discusses the EZH2-driven mechanisms that lead to the development of B-cell lymphomas and act as therapeutic targets. Another key area of investigation is whether EZH2 inhibitors will work synergistically with existing immunomodulatory drugs and chemotherapy regimens. In summary, EZH2 inhibitors show potential as treatment for a range of B-cell lymphomas, and numerous clinical evaluations are currently underway.
