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

backgroundImmunotherapy has emerged as an effective treatment for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in recent years. However, the ability of cancer cells to suppress antitumor immune responses through multiple mechanisms has become one of the major challenges for therapy. PYCR1 can reinforce the proliferation of LUAD cells, but the function of PYCR1 in LUAD against the tumor immune response has not been fully elucidated.

methodsThe clinical significance of PYCR1 in LUAD and the relationship between PYCR1 expression and CD8

resultsPYCR1 was upregulated in LUAD and was linked with the dismal prognosis of patients. Knockdown of PYCR1 in LUAD remarkably enhanced the activity of peripheral CD8

conclusionFOXA1 upregulates PYCR1 expression, activates autophagy in LUAD cells, and dampens CD8
