Induction of interleukin-6 by SPZ1-mediated Wnt5a signaling boosts progression of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.
Article in Journal of Cancer, 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
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignancy in Southeast Asia, and in the Guangxi and Guangdong provinces of China. The spermatogenic transcription factor zip 1 (SPZ1) is a member of bHLH zip family, and promotes tumorigenesis in the liver, colon and breast tissues. However, the role of SPZ1 in the progression of NPC is unclear. In this study, we found that SPZ1 mRNA and protein levels were significantly upregulated in NPC tissues compared to the normal nasopharyngeal tissues. Furthermore, SPZ1 knockdown in NPC cell lines inhibited proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, migration, and invasion
