XPC Protects against Carcinogen-Induced Histologic Progression to Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Reduced Basal Epithelial Cell Proliferation.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Although characterized by high DNA mutational burdens and genomic complexity, the role of DNA repair in LUSC development is poorly understood. We sought to better understand the role of the DNA repair protein Xeroderma Pigmentosum Group C (XPC) in LUSC development. XPC knock-out (KO), heterozygous, and wild-type (WT) mice were exposed topically to N-nitroso-tris-chloroethylurea (NTCU), and lungs were evaluated for histology and pre-malignant progression in a blinded fashion at various time-points from 8-24 weeks. High-grade dysplasia and LUSC were increased in XPC KO compared with XPC WT NTCU mice (56% vs. 34%), associated with a higher mean LUSC lung involvement (
