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

Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) refer to covalent and enzymatic alterations to folded or nascent proteins during or after protein biosynthesis to alter the properties and functions of proteins. PTMs are modified in a variety of types and affect almost all aspects of cell biology. PTMs have been reported to be involved in cancer progression by influencing multiple signaling pathways. The mechanism of action of histone PTMs in cancer has been extensively studied. Notably, evidence is mounting that PTMs of non-histone proteins also play a vital role in cancer progression. In this review, we provide a systematic description of main non-histone PTMs associated with cancer progression, including acetylation, lactylation, methylation, ubiquitination, phosphorylation, and SUMOylation, based on recent studies.
