The Role of A20 in Cancer: Friend or Foe?
Review in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
A20 is a ubiquitin-editing enzyme that has emerged as a key regulator of inflammatory signaling with paradoxical roles in cancer. Acting as both an oncogene and a tumor suppressor gene depending on the cellular context, A20 modulates important cell pathways, such as NF-κB signaling and autophagy. In this review, we summarize the dual roles of A20 in tumorigenesis, highlighting its ability to promote tumor progression in cancers, such as breast and melanoma, while functioning as a tumor suppressor in lymphomas and hepatocellular carcinoma. We discuss the interplay of A20 with autophagy, a process that is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis and influencing tumor dynamics. By integrating recent findings, we provide insight into how dysregulation of A20 and its associated pathways can either suppress or drive cancer development, which may lead to improved therapeutic intervention.
