The Role of SCARA5 as a Potential Biomarker in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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 cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the western world. Squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common histological subtypes of this malignancy. For squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (LSCC), prognostic and predictive markers still are largely missing. In a previous study, we were able to show that the expression of THSD7A shows an association with unfavorable prognostic parameters in prostate cancer. There is also a link to a high expression of FAK. There is incidence that SCARA5 might be the downstream gene of THSD7A. Furthermore, there is evidence that SCARA5 interacts with FAK. We were interested in the role of SCARA5 as a potential biomarker in LSCC. Furthermore, we wanted to know whether SCARA5 expression is linked to THSD7A positivity and to the expression level of FAK. For this reason, we analyzed 101 LSCC tumors by immunohistochemistry. Tissue microarrays were utilized. No significant association was found between SCARA5 expression and overall survival or clinicopathological parameters. There was also no significant association between THSD7A positivity and SCARA5 expression level. Moreover, no significant association was found between FAK expression level and SCARA5 expression level. SCARA5 seems not to play a major role as a biomarker in squamous cell carcinoma of the lung.
