Article in Zhongguo fei ai za zhi = Chinese journal of lung cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe early stages of tumor bone metastasis are closely associated with changes in the vascular niche of the bone microenvironment, and abnormal angiogenesis accelerates tumor metastasis and progression. However, the effects of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells reprogrammed by the bone microenvironment on the vascular niche within the bone microenvironment and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates the effects and mechanisms of LUAD cells reprogrammed by the bone microenvironment on endothelial cells and angiogenesis, providing insights into the influence of tumor cells on the vascular niche within the bone microenvironment.
methodsThe culture media from bone-metastatic LUAD cell A549-GFP-LUC-BM3 (BM3-CM) and A549-GFP-LUC (A549-CM) were separately applied to human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC). A colony formation assay, scratch assay, and tube formation assay were conducted to evaluate the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HUVEC. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was conducted to identify enriched pathways, while reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were performed to quantify hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a protein that plays a crucial role in angiogenesis. Furthermore, the pivotal function of HGF and its underlying molecular mechanisms have been substantiated through the utilisation of recombinant proteins, neutralising antibodies, pathway inhibitors, immunofluorescence staining, and Western blot.
resultsBM3-CM demonstrated a more pronounced impact on the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HUVEC compared to A549-CM. Bioinformatics analysis, combined with in vitro experiment, demonstrated that the secretory protein HGF was significantly elevated in BM3 cells and BM3-CM (P<0.05). The addition of HGF neutralizing antibodies to BM3-CM inhibited the promoting effect of BM3-CM on HUVEC (P<0.05), while the addition of recombinant HGF to A549-CM reproduced that promoting effect of BM3-CM on HUVEC (P<0.05). HGF can enhance the activation of YAP (Yes-associated protein) in HUVEC, and this promotion effect may be achieved by activating Src and activating YAP into the nucleus (P<0.05), but this effect can be inhibited by HGF neutralizing antibodies (P<0.05). Furthermore, the addition of recombinant HGF to A549-CM can recapitulate the YAP activation effect of BM3-CM in HUVEC (P<0.05).
conclusionsBone microenvironment reprogrammed bone-metastatic LUAD cells BM3 promote the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HUVEC through the HGF/YAP axis, potentially playing a significant role in the modifications of the vascular niche.
