Beyond Tumor Suppression: The Multifaceted Functions of HOPX in Tissue Differentiation, Metabolism, and Immunity.
Review in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The transcription factor homeodomain-only protein X (HOPX) is the smallest member of the homeodomain protein family. Lacking a DNA-binding domain, it acts as a co-effector, interacting with other transcription factors such as serum response factor (SRF) and GATA-binding factor 6 (GATA6) to regulate the differentiation and development of the heart and lung. HOPX exerts a tumor-suppressive function in various types of epithelial-derived carcinoma, while it promotes oncogenic effects in mesenchymal-derived sarcoma, indicating a distinct role of HOPX in the two major types of the malignancy. In addition, accumulating evidence shows that HOPX is expressed in the immune system and involved in the differentiation of immune cells. Recently, the emerging role of HOPX in metabolism has gained attention. This review describes the identification of HOPX in various tissues and discusses its role in carcinogenesis, as well as its functions in tissue differentiation, lipid metabolism, immunity, and the tumor microenvironment. The participation of HOPX in carcinogenesis and immunity implies that it may serve as a potential enhancer in tumor immunotherapy.
