NABP2 as an oncogenic biomarker promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression and metastasis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo evaluate the role and biological function of nucleic acid binding protein 2 (NABP2) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
methodsOur study was based on comprehensive bioinformatics methods and functional analysis experiments using HCC cells to reveal the expression of NABP2, the prognostic role of NABP2, the relationship between NABP2 and the infiltration of immune cells and the expression of immune-related cytokines, potential effective drugs against HCC, and the biological function of NABP2 in HCC.
resultsOur results indicated that NABP2 expression was markedly elevated in HCC, which suggested a worse prognosis and shorter survival time in HCC patients. Moreover, NABP2 was an independent prognostic factor and was associated with cancer-related signal pathways in HCC. Further functional analysis showed that knockdown of NABP2 dramatically inhibited proliferation and migration, and promoted apoptosis of HCC cells. Subsequently, we identified NABP2-related genes and NABP2-related clusters. Next, we constructed a NABP2-related risk signature based on differentially expressed genes that were responsible for NABP2-related clusters. We found that the risk signature was an independent prognostic factor for patients with HCC that was associated with dysregulated immune infiltration. Finally, drug sensitivity analysis revealed eight potentially effective drugs for beneficial treatment options for HCC patients with high-risk scores.
conclusionsThese findings indicated that NABP2 is a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for HCC, and a NABP2-related risk signature could guide clinicians to judge the prognosis and suggest drug treatments for HCC patients.
