LHX3 is an early stage and radiosensitivity prognostic biomarker in lung adenocarcinoma.

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
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. We previously identified LHX3 as a new preferentially expressed gene in NSCLC. In the present study, we sought to determine its expression, the clinical relevance and the functional roles in NSCLC. LHX3 expression is sharply increased in carcinoma tissues compared to non-carcinoma tissues. Relational analysis reveals a significant association between LHX3 expression and clinical stage (n=172, p=0.032) or radiotherapy (n=167, p=0.022) of patients. LHX3 expression is much higher in the patients at advanced stages (stage III-IV) than in the patients at early stages (stage I-II, p=0.0304), and LHX3 expression is remarkably increased in the patients with radiotherapy treatment (p=0.0002). Survival analyses indicate that LHX3 is associated with unfavorable survival (n=180, p=0.002) and represents an independent prognostic factor [hazard ratio (HR)=1.834, p=0.004] of the NSCLC patients. Furthermore, LHX3 is associated with unfavorable overall survival (n=866, p=0.004) and represents an independent prognostic factor (HR=2.36, p=0.000) in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) patients, but is not associated with overall survival of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) patients (n=524, p=0.27). Further analyses found that LHX3 is an early-stage (n=94, p=0.003) and radiosensitivity (n=45, p=0.002) prognostic factor in ADC patients. The patients without radiotherapy have a significantly prolonged survival compared to those with radiotherapy (p=0.0069). Further functional studies show that forced expression of LHX3 in lung cancer cells obviously promotes cell proliferation and invasion, whereas inhibits cell apoptosis. In summary, LHX3 is an early-stage and radiosensitivity prognostic biomarker, and a novel potential oncogene in ADC.
