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
Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent tumour in women worldwide. USP30 is a deubiquitinase that has been previously reported to promote tumour progression and lipid synthesis in hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the role of USP30 in breast cancer remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated its biological action and corresponding mechanisms in vitro and in vivo. In our study, we found that USP30 was highly expressed in breast cancer samples and correlated with a poor patient prognosis. Knockdown of USP30 significantly suppressed the proliferation, invasion and migration abilities of BC cells in vitro and tumour growth in vivo, whereas overexpression of USP30 exhibited the opposite effect. Mechanistically, we verified that USP30 interacts with and stabilises Snail to promote its protein expression through deubiquitination by K48-linked polyubiquitin chains and then accelerates the EMT program. More importantly, USP30 reduced the chemosensitivity of BC cells to paclitaxel (PTX). Collectively, these data demonstrate that USP30 promotes the BC cell EMT program by stabilising Snail and attenuating chemosensitivity to PTX and may be a potential therapeutic target in BC.
