KLF8 promotes invasive outgrowth of breast cancer by inducing filopodium-like protrusions via CXCR4.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. 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
Post-therapeutic relapse remains the biggest challenge to breast cancer management. The re-initiation of proliferation of dormant tumor cells in either metastatic or primary tumor location marks the final rate-limiting step of malignancy and mortality. The underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. We have recently demonstrated that KLF8 promotes breast cancer metastasis via CXCR4 upregulation. Here we report a role and mechanisms for KLF8 in driving the recurrence-like tumor outgrowth in both secondary and primary sites in a CXCR4-dependent manner. Treatment of an MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell variant with the CXCR4 ligand, CXCL12, induces formation of filopodia in monolayer culture and filopodium-like protrusions (FLPs) in 3D culture. The FLP
