Role and function of plakophilin 3 in cancer progression and skin disease.
Review in Cancer science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Plakophilin 3 (PKP3), a component of desmosome, is aberrantly expressed in many kinds of human diseases, especially in cancers. Through direct interaction, PKP3 binds with a series of desmosomal proteins, such as desmoglein, desmocollin, plakoglobin, and desmoplakin, to initiate desmosome aggregation, then promotes its stability. As PKP3 is mostly expressed in the skin, loss of PKP3 promotes the development of several skin diseases, such as paraneoplastic pemphigus, pemphigus vulgaris, and hypertrophic scar. Moreover, accumulated clinical data indicate that PKP3 dysregulates in diverse cancers, including breast, ovarian, colon, and lung cancers. Numerous lines of evidence have shown that PKP3 plays important roles in multiple cellular processes during cancer progression, including metastasis, invasion, tumor formation, autophagy, and proliferation. This review examines the diverse functions of PKP3 in regulating tumor formation and development in various types of cancers and summarizes its detailed mechanisms in the occurrence of skin diseases.
