Enhanced nuclear translation is associated with proliferation and progression across multiple cancers.
Article in MedComm, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Recent technological advances have re-invigorated the interest in nuclear translation (NT), but the underlying mechanisms and functional implications of NT remain unknown. Here we show that NT is enhanced in malignant cancer cells and is associated with rapid cell growth. Nuclear ribopuromycylation analyses in a panel of diverse cell lines revealed that NT is scarce in normal immortalized cells, but is ubiquitous and robust in malignant cancer cells. Moreover, NT occurs in the nucleolus and requires normal nucleolar function. Intriguingly, NT is reduced by cellular stresses and anti-tumor agents and positively correlates with cancer cell proliferation and growth. By using a modified puromycin-associated nascent chain proteomics, we further identified numerous oncoproteins that are preferentially translated in the nucleus, such as transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGFB2) and nucleophosmin 1 (NMP1). Specific overexpression of TGFB2 and NMP1 messenger RNAs in the nucleus can increase their protein levels and promote tumorigenesis. These findings establish a previously unknown link between NT and malignancy and suggest that cancer cells might have adapted a mechanism of NT to support their need for rapid growth, which highlight the potential of NT in tumorigenesis and might also open up new possibilities for therapeutic targeting of cancer-specific cellular functions.
