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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are increasingly recognized as functional non-coding transcripts with oncogenic potential. Here, a comprehensive analysis of circRNA expression in primary ALK(+) anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALK( + ) ALCL) is presented. Integrated transcriptomic profiling revealed that aberrant expression of circZBTB46 and of its linear host transcript, normally restricted to dendritic cells, is exclusive to ALK(+) lymphoma cells and driven by the oncogenic NPM1::ALK/STAT3 axis. Functional studies showed that circZBTB46, unlike its protein-coding counterpart, promotes resistance to the ALK inhibitor crizotinib. Silencing circZBTB46 restored crizotinib sensitivity in resistant ALCL cells both in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptomic analyses identified PIP5K1C as a downstream effector regulated through a competitive endogenous RNA mechanism in which circZBTB46 acts as a sponge to miR-25-3p, alleviating its repression of PIP5K1C. These findings uncover a previously unrecognized mechanism of drug resistance in ALK( + ) ALCL and establish circZBTB46 as a promising therapeutic target.
