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

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP), a transmembrane serine protease expressed primarily in pathological conditions, plays a pivotal role in tumor progression. Despite extensive studies on FAP in solid tumors, its role in hematologic cancers, particularly lymphoid malignancies, remains underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the level and activity of soluble FAP (sFAP) in pre-therapeutic serum samples from 120 lymphoma patients. We measured sFAP serum levels using time-resolved immunofluorometric assay and sFAP activity with Förster resonance energy transfer assay. In addition, immunohistochemistry was used to analyze intratumoral FAP expression in tissue biopsies from a subset of B-cell lymphoma patients (
