1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In a previous study, we discovered that the level of lnc-TSPAN12 was significantly elevated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and correlated with a low survival rate. However, the function and mechanism of lnc-TSPAN12 in modulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis in HCC remains poorly understood. This study demonstrates that lnc-TSPAN12 positively influences migration, invasion, and EMT of HCC cells in vitro and promotes hepatic metastasis in vivo. The modification of N6-methyladenosine, driven by METTL3, is essential for the stability of lnc-TSPAN12, which may partially contribute to the upregulation of lnc-TSPAN12. Mechanistically, lnc-TSPAN12 exhibits direct interactions with EIF3I and SENP1, acting as a scaffold to enhance the SENP1-EIF3I interaction. As a result, the SUMOylation of EIF3I is inhibited, preventing its ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Ultimately, this activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, stimulating EMT and metastasis in HCC. Our findings shed light on the regulatory mechanism of lnc-TSPAN12 in HCC metastasis and identify the lnc-TSPAN12-EIF3I/SENP1 axis as a novel therapeutic target for HCC.
