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

Background: Lactate dehydrogenase C (LDHC) is a kind of cancer-testis antigen (CTA) that has been reported to be a biomarker for diagnosis, efficacy evaluation, and recurrence monitoring of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). This study aims to assess the value of LDHC in peptide-based vaccines for LUAD immunotherapy. Methods: The LDHC recombinant protein was purified and its effect on PC9 cells was evaluated by wound healing assay, Transwell invasion, and migration assay. Ten HLA-A2-restricted LDHC-derived peptides were predicted and synthesized, and the affinity for the HLA-A2 molecule was analyzed by T2 binding assay and molecule docking. Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISpot) and LDH cytotoxicity assay were performed to determine the interferon-γ (IFN-γ) release level and tumor cell lysis ability of peptide-induced specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Results: The LDHC recombinant protein promoted invasion and migration of PC9 cells. Three HLA-A2-restricted LDHC-derived peptides P2 (LDHC Conclusions: LDHC may serve as a targetable biomarker for peptide-based immunotherapy of LUAD.
