Low TIP30 Protein Expression is Associated with a High Risk of Metastasis and Poor Prognosis for Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.

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 a deadly malignancy with a high prevalence worldwide. A reliable biomarker that can predict the prognosis is required to determine the therapeutic strategy. TIP30 was first identified as a tumor suppressor. A number of mechanistic studies indicated that the downregulation of TIP30 enhances the stemness, migration and survival of NSCLC cells. However, the clinical relevance of TIP30 for the prognosis of NSCLC is unknown. From a meta-analysis of public microarray datasets, we showed the upregulation of TIP30 mRNA expression was associated with worse overall survival of NSCLC patients, which contradicted the tumor suppressive role of TIP30. It is worth noting that the TIP30 mRNA expression was not correlated with its protein expression in 15 NSCLC cell lines. The results from the immunohistochemistry of a tissue microarray showed the downregulation of the TIP30 protein expression was associated with a higher risk of metastasis. In addition, the decrease in TIP30 protein was correlated with worse overall and progression-free survival of the NSCLC patients. Multivariate analysis suggested the loss of TIP30 protein was an independent factor to predict the poor prognosis of NSCLC. Our data indicated that TIP30 protein, not mRNA, would be a potential prognostic biomarker of NSCLC.
