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

Objective: The aim of this review is to synthesize current evidence on the interaction between Hippo-YAP signaling and EMT in the malignant transformation of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to examine their potential utility as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Design: Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, five electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, LIVIVO, and Embase) were utilized for this search. Eligible studies included human tissue-based investigations and complementary Results: From 2,208 records, 12 studies (26 datasets) were included. Across study designs, Hippo-YAP dysregulation and EMT activation were consistently observed across the normal to OPMD to OSCC progression. YAP nuclear localization correlated with reduced E-cadherin and increased vimentin, N-cadherin, Snail, and Slug expression. Crosstalk between YAP and MAPK/ERK, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, and Wnt/β-catenin pathways further amplified EMT signaling. High
