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

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, remains a significant global health challenge due to limited understanding of its molecular mechanisms. HROB, a recently identified gene, has been implicated in cell cycle regulation, but its role in lung cancer progression is poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate that HROB suppresses LUAD progression by interacting with ZC3HC1 and reducing its phosphorylation at Ser354. This de-phosphorylation event facilitates K27-linked ubiquitination of CCNB1, promoting its proteasomal degradation and impairing the G2-to-M phase transition. Consequently, HROB suppresses cell proliferation and tumor growth. Our findings reveal a novel HROB-ZC3HC1-CCNB1 regulatory axis, providing mechanistic insights into LUAD progression. These results highlight HROB as a potential therapeutic target, offering new avenues for clinical intervention in lung cancer treatment.
