Lactate and lactylation in breast cancer: current understanding and therapeutic opportunities.
Review in Cancer biology & medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Breast cancer (BC) has the highest prevalence among cancers specific to women, and its incidence rates are increasing in many countries. Subtypes of BC, including HER2-positive or triple-negative BC, exhibit differing treatment responses; consequently, demand for personalized therapy is increasing, and relevant precision medicine strategies are under development. Aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells can lead to excessive lactate production, which in turn promotes lactylation and influences tumor cell behavior. Epigenetic alterations and metabolic reprogramming are prominent characteristics of tumors. Because lactate and lactylation are important in cancer, further investigation of the mechanisms underlying lactate metabolism and lactylation, and the development of therapeutic strategies targeting these processes, are topics of increasing interest. This review describes current research on lactate metabolism and lactylation in BC, thus offering new perspectives for advancing treatment and management toward more precise and personalized approaches that will ultimately increase BC survival rates and patient quality of life.
