Clinicopathological Significance of DUB3 Expression in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Relationship Between DUB3 Expression and LATS1 Expression.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). 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
BACKGROUND/
aimDeubiquitinating enzyme 3 (DUB3) is a member of the ubiquitin-specific proteases family involved in regulating cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis. However, the biological role and clinicopathological significance of DUB3 expression have not been elucidated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND
methodsWe evaluated the expression of DUB3 by immunohistochemistry using tissue microarrays and assessed the clinicopathologic significance of DUB3 expression levels in 187 patients with NSCLC, including its two major subtypes (93 cases of adenocarcinoma and 72 cases of squamous cell carcinoma).
resultsIn adenocarcinoma, we observed that DUB3 expression had an effect on tumor size (p=0.030), vessel invasion (p=0.038), T stage (p=0.014), and tumor recurrence (p=0.002). Kaplan-Meier curves with log-rank test showed that high DUB3 expression was correlated with significantly more favorable clinical outcomes compared to those of the low expression group in adenocarcinoma (p=0.013). Multivariate analysis of disease-free survival also demonstrated that DUB3 expression is an independent prognostic factor in lung adenocarcinoma (p=0.017). Additionally, we identified the correlation between DUB3 and the expression of large tumor suppressor kinase 1 expression, a core protein of the Hippo pathway.
conclusionDUB3 could function as a tumor suppressor by regulating the Hippo pathway in lung adenocarcinoma and can be considered a powerful predictive factor and therapeutic target.
