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

Elevated intracellular lipid synthesis is important for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression. Our study aimed to identify the role of nucleoporin 37 (NUP37) in lipid synthesis and HCC progression. The expression of NUP37 was significantly upregulated in HCC and associated with a poor prognosis. NUP37 silencing suppressed lipid synthesis, proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells in vitro, and restrained tumor growth in xenograft mouse models in vivo. Next, we found the high expression of NUP37 in HCC was related to post-translational modifications. Tripartite motif-containing 28 (TRIM28) was identified as an interacting protein of NUP37 and upregulated its protein level. The subsequent analysis revealed that TRIM28-mediated SUMOylation of NUP37 at Lys114/118/246 inhibited K27-linked polyubiquitination of NUP37, which is one reason for its high expression level in HCC. In conclusion, TRIM28 SUMOylates NUP37 to prevent its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, increasing the stability of the NUP37 protein, thereby promoting lipid synthesis and the progression of HCC.
