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

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most common RCC subtype, displays significant intratumoral heterogeneity driven by metabolic reprogramming, which complicates our understanding of disease progression and limits treatment efficacy. This study aimed to construct a comprehensive cellular and transcriptional landscape of ccRCC, with emphasis on gene expression dynamics during malignant progression. An integrated analysis of 90 scRNA-seq samples comprising 534,227 cells revealed a progressive downregulation of sodium ion transport-related genes, particularly CHP1 (calcineurin B homologous protein isoform 1), which is predominantly expressed in epithelial cells. Reduced CHP1 expression was confirmed at both mRNA and protein levels using bulk RNA-seq, CPTAC proteomics, immunohistochemistry, and ccRCC cell lines. Survival analysis showed that high CHP1 expression correlated with improved prognosis. Functional analyses, including pseudotime trajectory, Mfuzz clustering, and cell-cell communication modeling, indicated that CHP1
