m6A methyltransferase METTL3 promotes non-small-cell lung carcinoma progression by inhibiting the RIG-I-MAVS innate immune pathway.
Article in Translational oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Our experimental study showed that METTL3 was highly expressed in NSCLC cells and promoted the growth of tumor cells. METTL3 takes N6-methyladenosine (m6A) as the main means of mRNA modification to control the expression and function of RIG-I-MAVS signalling pathway. RIG-I-MAVS constitute the first line frontier in the innate immune defense of human cells. Activation of RIG-I-MAVS signaling can inhibit tumor cell growth and activate the immune microenvironment. Our experimental data reveal that lung cancer cells utilize METTL3-mediated methylation modifications to inhibit the activation of RIG-I-MAVS signaling pathway and immune responses. Our work provides new ideas for biotherapy and immunotherapy.
