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

The ubiquitin-specific peptidase 39 (USP39) belongs to the USP family of cysteine proteases representing the largest group of human deubiquitinases (DUBs). While the oncogenic function of USP39 has been investigated in various cancer types, its roles in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain largely unknown. Here, by applying a gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) on lung adenocarcinoma tissues and metabolite set enrichment analysis (MSEA) on NSCLC cells depleted of USP39, we identified a previously unknown link between USP39 and the metabolism in NSCLC cells. Mechanistically, we uncovered a component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex, pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha (PDHA), as a target of USP39. We further present that USP39 silencing caused an elevation in Lys
