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

The mucin family is a group of highly glycosylated macromolecules widely present in human epithelial cells and with subtypes of secreted and membrane-associated forms. The membrane-associated mucins, known as transmembrane mucins, are not only involved in the formation of mucus barrier but also regulate cell signal transduction in physiological and pathological status. Transmembrane mucins could contribute to lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis, and remodel the immune microenvironment involved in immune escape. Furthermore, transmembrane mucins have been explored as potential LUAD indicators for diagnosis and prognosis. The development of targeted therapy and immunotherapeutic drugs targeting transmembrane mucins has also provided broad application prospects for clinic. In the following review, we summarize the characteristic structures of diverse transmembrane mucins, regulatory roles in promoting the progression of LUAD, and the current situation of diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic strategies based on transmembrane mucins.
