Calmodulin-Like Protein 5 (CALML5) Expression in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Esophagus and Oropharynx.
Article in Acta histochemica et cytochemica, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), a common malignancy affecting the skin, vagina, uterine cervix, anus, larynx, and upper digestive tract, is characterized by significant disruption of cell-cell adhesion in stratified squamous epithelium during tumorigenesis, progression, and metastasis. CALML5, a stratified epithelial-specific protein linked to desmosomal junctions, plays a key role in cell adhesion and is notably downregulated in human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cervical SCC. Esophageal and pharyngeal cancers, commonly with a squamous cell phenotype, have distinct etiologies: oropharyngeal carcinoma is strongly associated with HPV, whereas esophageal carcinoma is linked to environmental factors such as smoking, alcohol, and diet. To investigate the role of CALML5 in these cancers, we performed immunohistochemical analyses on clinical samples and explored its regulatory mechanisms using
