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

Aberrant activation of ERK signaling is a hallmark of lung cancer. Although constitutively activating mutations of EGFR and KRAS contribute to the hyperactivation of ERK1/2, other mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, the zinc finger protein ZNF251 was found to be upregulated in clinical lung cancer samples, and it promoted the growth of lung cancer cells and the growth of primary lung KPC cells from mouse models (Ad-Cre, Kras
