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

Tumor immune microenvironment is strongly associated with the malignancy behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the immune function and regulatory mechanisms of B cells in HCC remain unclear. The expression differences between B cell high- and low-infiltration HCC samples are explored to identify the key regulator. Pre-mRNA processing factor 19 (PRP19) expression is increased in B cell low-infiltrated tissues and negatively correlated with the B cell marker, CD20. Inhibition of PRP19 expression promoted B cell infiltration in tumor tissue and impeded HCC growth. Mechanically, the co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay revealed that PRP19 interacts with DEAD-box helicase 5 (DDX5), leading to ubiquitination and degradation of the DDX5 protein. The attenuated DDX5 impairs CXCL12 mRNA stability to suppress B cell recruitment and plasma cell differentiation via CXCL12/CXCR4 axis. Moreover, the adoptive transfer of CXCR4+ B cells combined with CXCL12 treatment in mice models effectively inhibits HCC development by reshaping the immune response. The expression of PRP19, DDX5, and infiltrating B cells are recognized as clinical prognosis indicators for HCC patients. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the clinical benefits of HCC immunotherapy by targeting PRP19 and modulating tumor-infiltrating B cell immune function.
