Dysregulation and oncogenic activities of ubiquitin specific peptidase 2a in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Ubiquitin specific peptidase 2a (USP2a) plays critical roles in protein degradation and other cellular activities. Currently, our understanding on USP2a dysregulation in subjects with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its roles in HCC pathogenesis is limited. In this study, we found that USP2a mRNA and protein levels were significantly upregulated in HCC tumors from both human and mice. USP2a overexpression in HepG2 and Huh 7 cells significantly increased cell proliferation while inhibition of USP2a activity by chemical inhibitor or stable knockout of USP2 by CRISPR markedly reduced cell proliferation. In addition, USP2a overexpression significantly augmented the resistance while knockout of USP2a markedly increased the susceptibility of HepG2 cells to bile acid-induced apoptosis and necrosis.
