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

objectiveRegulatory Factor X (RFX) transcription factors have been implicated in different cancers. Ras association domain family (RASSF) has been shown clinical significance in lung cancer. This paper was to investigate the interaction of RFX2 and RASSF1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

methodsThe transcriptome differences of LUAD patients in GSE32863, GSE43458, and GSE21933 datasets were analyzed. A-549 and NCI-H358 cell lines after overexpression of RFX2 were co-cultured with activated CD8

resultsRFX2 was notably downregulated in LUAD. RFX2 overexpression increased infiltrating CD8

conclusionRFX2 Loss in LUAD downregulates RASSF1 expression and YAP phosphorylation, thereby promoting immune escape through Hippo signaling.
