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

Introduction: The peripheral immune profiles of patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) remain poorly characterized. Investigating immune dysregulation in PCNSL may help elucidate the underlying disease mechanisms. Methods: We aimed to define the circulating immune landscape in PCNSL by characterizing the immune cell profiles in 16 patients and 6 healthy participants using mass cytometry. Results: Patients exhibited significant alterations in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, including expansion of CD45RO+ classical monocytes (p=0.017), reduced intermediate subsets (p=0.01), and elevated CD38 expression (p<0.001). The number of terminally differentiated CD8+CD57+ T cells increased (p=0.013), and treatment induced effector T cell (CD8+ T effector/effector memory cells, p<0.05) expansion, accompanied by co-upregulation of CD38, HLA-DR, and CD107a (p<0.01). Patients < 60 years had higher frequencies of CD8+ naïve T cells (p<0.05), and progressive disease correlated with CD56 Conclusion: the circulating immune landscape in PCNSL is characterized by skewed monocyte activation, T cell terminal exhaustion, and chemotherapy-induced effector T cell expansion. Our findings link peripheral immune features to the tumor microenvironment biology. Understanding these systemic immune alterations may provide insights into tumor immune evasion and offer a roadmap for reversing PCNSL-associated immunosuppression.
