Regulation of 4-HNE via SMARCA4 Is Associated with Worse Clinical Outcomes in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Biomedicines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Accumulation of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a marker of lipid peroxidation, has various favorable and unfavorable effects on cancer cells; however, the clinicopathological significance of its accumulation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its metabolic pathway remain unknown. This study analyzed 4-HNE accumulation and its clinicopathological significance in HCC. Of the 221 cases, 160 showed relatively low accumulation of 4-HNE in HCC tissues, which was an independent prognostic predictor. No correlation was found between 4-HNE accumulation and the expression of the antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase 4, ferroptosis suppressor protein 1, and guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1. Therefore, we hypothesized that 4-HNE metabolism is up-regulated in HCC. A database search was focused on the transcriptional regulation of aldo-keto reductases, alcohol dehydrogenases, and glutathione-S-transferases, which are the metabolic enzymes of 4-HNE, and seven candidate transcription factor genes were selected. Among the candidate genes, the knockdown of SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a, member 4 (SMARCA4) increased 4-HNE accumulation. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed an inverse correlation between 4-HNE accumulation and SMARCA4 expression. These results suggest that SMARCA4 regulates 4-HNE metabolism in HCC. Therefore, targeting SMARCA4 provides a basis for a new therapeutic strategy for HCC via 4-HNE accumulation and increased cytotoxicity.
