Whole-genome DNA methylation and DNA methylation-based biomarkers in lung squamous cell carcinoma.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Exploring early detection methods through comprehensive evaluation of DNA methylation for lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) patients is of great significance. By using different machine learning algorithms for feature selection and model construction based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases, five methylation biomarkers in LUSC (along with mapped genes) were identified including cg14823851 (TBX4), cg02772121 (TRIM15), cg10424681 (C6orf201), cg12910906 (ARHGEF4), and cg20181079 (OR4D11), achieving extremely high sensitivity and specificity in distinguishing LUSC from normal samples in independent cohorts. Pyrosequencing assay verified DNA methylation levels, meanwhile qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry results presented their accordant methylation-related gene expression statuses in paired LUSC and normal lung tissues. The five methylation-based biomarkers proposed in this study have great potential for the diagnosis of LUSC and could guide studies in methylation-regulated tumor development and progression.
