Midnolin Correlates With Anti-Tumour Immunity and Promotes Liver Cancer Progression Through β-Catenin.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2025. 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
Midnolin (MIDN) is a protein coding gene that promotes the destruction of transcription factors encoded by immediate-early genes. Previous research has found that those immediate-early genes are involved in tumour progression. However, the role of MIDN is still not clearly identified in human cancers. With the help of the TCGA, GTEx, and HPA databases, we revealed that the expression of MIDN was disordered in cancers. MIDN is a potential prognostic biomarker in liver cancer and bladder cancer. Prognostic analysis indicates that the expression level of MIDN gains survival benefits or promotes progression in multiple tumours. After analysing the sequencing results of TCGA via Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), results suggested the regulative role of MIDN in cell proliferation and tumour immunity. Single cell sequencing results revealed that MIDN is highly expressed in several tumour tissues and also expressed in immune cells. With the help of the ESTIMATE, TIMER, and CIBERSORT databases, we analysed the immune score, immune cell infiltration, and anti-cancer immunity cycle depending on the expression of MIDN. Results showed that low MIDN levels are tightly associated with high CD4 + T and NK cell infiltration. Furthermore, mutations of MIDN in cancers were significantly associated with immune cell infiltration. This study presents a robust link between the expression of MIDN and tumour progression across multiple cancer types. The MIDN/CTNNB1/MMP9 axis promotes liver cancer progression via inducing a suppressive tumour immune microenvironment.
