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

backgroundNon-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a highly aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis, largely due to increasing resistance to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs). The mechanisms of NSCLC TKI resistance remain unknown. This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanism of METTL16-mediated GPX4 m

methodsTCGA, and GEO datasets were used to analyze the differential expression of m

resultsMETTL16 was significantly upregulated in NSCLC tissue and was associated with a worse prognosis. Overexpression of METTL16 significantly promoted the proliferation and AZD-9291 resistance of NSCLC, while METTL16 knockdown inhibited the above phenotype. Through bioinformatic analysis and experimental results, we found that GPX4 mRNA is a substrate of METTL16. GPX4 was upregulated in AZD-9291-resistant NSCLC cells and ferroptosis was inhibited. As a key regulator of ferroptosis, METTL16 mediated GPX4 m

conclusionsIn summary, we found that METTL16-mediated GPX4 modification promoted the proliferation and AZD-9291 resistance of NSLCL by inhibiting ferroptosis activity. Our study is expected to provide a novel insight and potential therapeutic target for NSCLC AZD-9291 resistance.
