The relationship of EZH2 and HOXA5 with non-small cell lung carcinoma patient survival rate.
Article in Translational cancer research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThe primary cause of cancer-related death globally is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our objectives were to show the expression and distribution of EZH2 and homeobox A5 (HOXA5) in 194 human NSCLC tissues, as well as to evaluate the expression of EZH2 and HOXA5 with patients' survival rate. We also aimed to determine the statistical correlations of GST-π and survivin expression with chemotherapy and survival rate.
methodA total of 194 patients with NSCLC and 18 standard controls were included. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the EZH2, HOXA5, GST-π, and survivin expression. The expression of EZH2, HOXA5, GST-π and Survivin with clinicopathological features in NSCLC patients was assessed and the prognostic value of EZH2, HOXA5, GST-π and Survivin expression was evaluated using a Kaplan-Meier curve and log-rank analysis.
resultsThe results showed that EZH2 and Survivin were not detected in normal lung tissues, but for the HOXA5, the ratio of expression in adenocarcinoma reached up to 80%, and up to 75% in squamous carcinoma. NSCLC patients with late stage TNM (III, IV) had a relatively high EZH2 expression compared to those with early stage (I, II) (P<0.01), and patients with lymphatic metastasis had a higher EZH2 expression compared to those with no metastasis (P<0.01). Cox analysis revealed that an independent biomarker for forecasting poor overall survival (OS) in NSCLC patients was a strong HOXA5 and Survivincombination.
conclusionsEZH2 improves NSCLC cells' metastatic ability and that HOXA5 and Survivin could be a potential biomarker for diagnostic and prognostic use in patients with NSCLC.
