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 immune evasion is one major challenge for cancer immunotherapy. Despite considerable advancements in immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies for the advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, only a minority of patients receive long-term survival benefit. Here, this work demonstrates that lysine methyltransferase 5C (KMT5C) is a crucial promoter of the NSCLC progression and immune evasion. This work first observes that upregulation of KMT5C in NSCLC correlated with cancer progression and poor patient prognosis. Notably, KMT5C knockdown in NSCLC cells suppress tumor growth and metastasis in mice. Mechanistically, this work demonstrates that KMT5C activated the DNA repair response to inhibit the STING-IRF3 pathway, downstream type I IFN signaling, and CCL5 secretion, leading to the downregulation of CD8
