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 and purpose: Dyslipidemia has been linked to acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), with abnormal lipid metabolism observed during treatment. However, its role in APL pathogenesis remains unclear. This study investigates the relationship between serum lipid levels and clinical features, risk stratification, bleeding tendency, and prognosis of newly diagnosed APL patients, focusing on the role of the PTK2 gene in regulating lipid metabolism and its potential as a therapeutic target. Materials and methods: We analyzed 90 newly diagnosed APL patients and 99 controls. Statistical analyses, including logistic regression, survival analysis, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, were used to assess lipid correlations with APL. Subgroup analyses explored specific clinical impacts, and functional experiments validated PTK2's role in lipid metabolism. Results: Elevated triglycerides (TG) were positively associated with high-risk APL, while reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels correlated with lower risk. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was an independent prognostic marker, with lower levels linked to poorer outcomes. PTK2 expression significantly promoted APL cell proliferation, migration, and lipid metabolism, highlighting its role in APL pathogenesis. PTK2 regulates lipid metabolism-related factors, such as LDL and fibrinogen, through molecular pathways. Conclusion: Dyslipidemia is closely related to APL, with TG and LDL-C levels being key prognostic indicators. PTK2 plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism regulation and APL progression, providing a new molecular basis for risk assessment and targeted therapy. These findings offer potential biomarkers for early diagnosis and personalized treatment strategies.
