Molecular mechanisms of MAZ targeting up-regulation of NDUFS3 expression to promote malignant progression in melanoma.
Article in Communications biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Myc-associated Zinc-finger Protein (MAZ) has been implicated in the malignant progression of various tumors. However, its expression and functional relationship of MAZ in melanoma have not been previously investigated. This study confirms elevated expression of MAZ in melanoma, correlating with poor patient prognosis. Furthermore, our findings demonstrate that MAZ enhances melanoma progression by promoting proliferation, migration and invasion. It is worth noting that we found that MAZ can target and regulate the transcription of NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] iron-sulfur protein 3 (NDUFS3), a core subunit of mitochondrial complex I, to enhance mitochondrial metabolism and thus promote malignant progression of melanoma. Predictive modeling indicates that the co-expression of MAZ and NDUFS3 could serve as a potential prognostic marker for melanoma patients.
