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

This study aims to investigate the early stages of lymphoid malignancy pathogenesis and identify pre-diagnostic proteomic markers for lymphoma. Using the SomaScan-7K platform, we analyze 6412 unique plasma proteins in a case-cohort study nested within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort, comprising 4565 participants (484 incident lymphoid malignancy cases, median follow-up 9 years). We identify over 500 unique protein-lymphoid malignancy associations. Enriched pathways include viral protein interactions, cytokine signaling, B-cell receptor signaling, and NF-κB activation, reflecting key mechanisms in lymphoma pathogenesis. Cross-cohort validation of the top 20 FDR-significant proteins reveals concordant nominal significance for 70%-95% of the associations in the UK Biobank (Olink) and ARIC (SomaScan) studies. Time-stratified analyses reveals that a subset of these protein-lymphoma associations is evident over a decade before diagnosis. These findings highlight the potential of circulating proteomic markers in risk stratification, early diagnosis, and targeted prevention strategies for lymphoid malignancies.
