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

Immunoproteasome is a variant of proteasome with structural differences in 20S subunits optimizing them for the production of antigenic peptides with higher binding affinity to major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-I molecules. Apart from this primary function in antigen presentation, immunoproteasome is also responsible for the degradation of proteins, both unfolded proteins for the maintenance of protein homeostasis and tumor suppressor proteins contributing to tumor progression. The altered expression of immunoproteasome is frequently observed in cancers; however, its expression levels and effects vary among different cancer types exhibiting antagonistic roles in tumor development. This review focuses on the dichotomous role of immunoproteasome in different cancer types, as well as summarizes the current progression in immunoproteasome activators and inhibitors. Specifically targeting immunoproteasome may be a beneficial therapeutic intervention in cancer treatment and understanding the role of immunoproteasome in cancers will provide a significant therapeutic insight for the prevention and treatment of cancers.
