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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a highly heterogeneous metastatic lymphoma that can be treated by targeting angiogenesis. Apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1) plays a significant role in the proliferation and metastasis of various malignant tumors; however, its role in DLBCL-particularly its effects on angiogenesis-remains largely unexplored. This study investigates the correlation between APOC1 expression and patient prognosis in DLBCL. Using APOC1 gene knockdown, apoptosis, migration, and invasion were assessed through flow cytometry, the EDU assay, wound healing, and Transwell assays. Additionally, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) angiogenesis was evaluated. Advanced techniques, such as immunofluorescence, TUNEL assay, and immunohistochemical labeling were employed to analyze the effects of APOC1 knockdown on the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and tumor formation in nude mice. Results showed that APOC1 is overexpressed in DLBCL tissues and cells, with high APOC1 levels associated with poor patient prognosis. In vitro experiments revealed that APOC1 knockdown increased apoptosis and inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion, HUVEC angiogenesis, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway protein expression in DLBCL cells. Similarly, in vivo studies demonstrated that APOC1 knockdown significantly reduced tumor growth, angiogenesis-related proteins, and phosphorylated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway proteins in nude mice. APOC1 knockdown promotes apoptosis and suppresses angiogenesis in DLBCL cells by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.
