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

Chemoresistance and metastasis remain significant challenges in cancer therapy, resulting in treatment failures for cancer patients. Therefore, there is a need to investigate the mechanisms underlying cancer chemoresistance and metastasis, identify novel drug targets, and develop innovative antitumor medications. In this study, we have shown that the ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UBE2N plays a crucial role in promoting chemoresistance and metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) both in vitro and in vivo. Significantly, our study revealed that the natural compound wilforine functions as a potential inhibitor of UBE2N, effectively reversing resistance to cisplatin (CDDP) and inhibiting metastasis of LUAD both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings collectively suggest that UBE2N may have a pivotal role in the development of chemoresistance and metastasis in LUAD, providing a foundation for potential therapeutic strategies in the management of advanced cancer.
