Expression and hypermethylation of JAM and EPB41L3 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma: Clinical significance and applications.
Article in Histology and histopathology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
This study aimed to explore the expression and hypermethylation of EPB41L3 and JAM3 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) and to investigate their clinical significance. JAM3 and EPB41L3 mRNA expression was analyzed using a public database, and protein expression was detected using immunohistochemistry. The methylation status of JAM3 and EPB41L3 was detected in CSCC tissues and cervical cytological specimens using a quantitative methylation-specific PCR (qMSP). JAM3 and EPB41L3 mRNA were downregulated in CSCC. The JAM3 protein was positively detected in 39.4% of CSCC tissues and frequently expressed in those with lower FIGO stage and no lymph node metastasis. EPB41L3 was expressed in 18.9% of CSCC tissues. The hypermethylation of JAM3 was detected in 52.3% of CSCC tissues and related to higher FIGO stage and lymph node metastasis. EPB41L3 hypermethylation was detected in 72.7% of CSCC tissues and related to older ages and lymph node metastasis. In cervical cytological specimens, no methylation of JAM3 and EPB41L3 was found in normal or inflamed cervical epithelial cells. The methylation of JAM3 was detected in 0%, 8.3%, and 6.3% of ASCUS, LSIL, and HSIL samples, while EPB41L3 was detected in 12.5%, 42.9%, and 71.4%, respectively. The sensitivity of the combination of JAM3 and EPB41L3 methylation detection in ASCUS, LSIL, and HSIL was 8.3%, 15.6%, and 85.7%, respectively. The specificity of the combination of JAM3 and EPB41L3 methylation detection was 100%. Downregulation of JAM3 and EPB41L3 by hypermethylation was detected in CSCC. JAM3 and EPB41L3 hypermethylation are potential biomarkers for cervical cancer screening.
