NNMT-DNMT1 Axis is Essential for Maintaining Cancer Cell Sensitivity to Oxidative Phosphorylation Inhibition.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Lacking a clear understanding of the molecular mechanism determining cancer cell sensitivity to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) inhibition limits the development of OXPHOS-targeting cancer treatment. Here, cancer cell lines sensitive or resistant to OXPHOS inhibition are identified by screening. OXPHOS inhibition-sensitive cancer cells possess increased OXPHOS activity and silenced nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) expression. NNMT expression negatively correlates with OXPHOS inhibition sensitivity and functionally downregulates the intracellular levels of S-adenosyl methionine (SAM). Expression of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), a SAM consumer, positively correlates with OXPHOS inhibition sensitivity. NNMT overexpression and DNMT1 inhibition render OXPHOS inhibition-sensitive cancer cells resistant. Importantly, treatments of OXPHOS inhibitors (Gboxin and Berberine) hamper the growth of mouse tumor xenografts by OXPHOS inhibition sensitive but not resistant cancer cells. What's more, the retrospective study of 62 tumor samples from a clinical trial demonstrates that administration of Berberine reduces the tumor recurrence rate of NNMT
