Identification of Plasma Metabolites Associated with Lung Cancer Survival.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. 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
Limited knowledge has been reported regarding the performance of plasma metabolomics for predicting lung cancer prognosis. In this chapter, we compared the plasma metabolomics of lung cancer patients with differential disease-free survival (DFS, <3 years vs. >4 years) using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. We identified 29 survival-related aqueous metabolites but no lipid metabolites. Amino acids and organic acids constitute the majority of these metabolites. The metabolic pathways of these metabolites were cysteine and methionine metabolism and arginine biosynthesis. The Cox proportional hazards regression models confirmed the predictive values of 18 metabolites for DFS, while the phosphocholine and xanthine showed independent predictive values. Regarding cancer phenotypes, thelephoric acid, phosphocholine, inosine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, hypoxanthine, xanthine, and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid showed good correction with lymph node metastasis. Taken together, plasma metabolomics is a powerful tool for identifying prognostic metabolites of lung cancer.
