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

Aberrant ubiquitination drives hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression, yet the role of FBXO10-a key F-box E3 ubiquitin ligase component-remains uncharacterized. Through bioinformatics analyses and functional validation, we establish FBXO10 as a critical oncogenic driver in HCC. Transcriptomic data from public databases (TIMER, UALCAN, GEO) revealed significant FBXO10 upregulation in HCC tissues, with elevated expression predicting advanced tumor stage, metastasis, and reduced survival. Functionally, FBXO10 silencing suppressed HCC cell proliferation while its overexpression promoted tumor growth. Mechanistic studies revealed that FBXO10 directly interacts with FRMPD1 to mediate its K63-linked polyubiquitination and stabilization, independent of transcriptional regulation. FRMPD1 restoration rescued FBXO10-mediated proliferation, confirming its role as the key downstream effector. Clinically, FBXO10 expression correlated with TP53 mutations and adverse clinicopathological features. Our findings reveal a novel FBXO10-FRMPD1 axis promoting hepatocarcinogenesis through post-translational stabilization, positioning FBXO10 as both a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in HCC.
