Ubiquitin Specific Protease 29 Functions as an Oncogene Promoting Tumorigenesis in Colorectal Carcinoma.
Article in Cancers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Colorectal carcinoma is the third foremost cause of cancer-related deaths and accounts for 5.8% of all deaths globally. The molecular mechanisms of colon cancer progression and metastasis control are not well studied. Ubiquitin-specific protease 29 (USP29), a deubiquitinating enzyme, is involved in the occurrence and development of wide variety of cancers. However, its clinical significance and biological roles in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) remain unexplored. In this research, we observed that the rate of USP29 overexpression was higher in colon cancer patient tissues relative to its corresponding normal tissues. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated depletion of USP29 triggered DNA double strand breaks and delayed cell-cycle progression in HCT116 cells. We also demonstrated that USP29 depletion hampers the colony formation and increases apoptosis of HCT116 cells. USP29 knockdown significantly decreased CRC cell proliferation in vitro. Depletion of USP29 in HCT116 cells substantially reduced the tumor volume of mouse xenografts. In conclusion, our study shows that elevated expression of USP29 promotes malignancy in CRC, suggesting that USP29 could be a promising target for colon cancer therapy.
