Lung cancer associated autoantibody responses are detectable years before clinical presentation.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The EarlyCDT-Lung® test detects elevated levels of tumour-associated autoantibodies generated in response to immune recognition of cancerous cells, and these autoantibodies have previously been shown to precede clinical presentation of lung cancer. Using a longitudinal cohort from the United Kingdom Collaborative Trial of Ovarian Cancer Screening (UKCTOCS) study, we have established that elevated autoantibodies can be detected an average of four years in advance of clinical presentation, and in some cases up to 8 years prior to clinical presentation. This is the first study to establish pre-diagnostic elevation of autoantibodies using samples from a longitudinal prospective clinical trial using a clinically validated and commercially available biomarker panel.
