Next-generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction.

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
Screening heavy smokers by low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can reduce lung cancer (LC) mortality, but defining the population that benefits most, a prerequisite for cost-effective screening, is challenging. In order to contribute to a more nuanced risk stratification of high-risk target populations, we developed and validated a blood-based protein marker model for LC. A two-stage design was implemented in this study, and the derivation set comprised 18 868 participants from the UK Biobank, which included 200 incident LC cases identified at 6 years of follow-up. The independent validation set included 101 LC cases identified at 6 years of follow-up. A total of 2025 protein markers measured by proximity extension assays available for both datasets were used for analysis. A risk prediction algorithm by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression with bootstrap method was developed in the derivation set and then externally evaluated in the independent validation set. The risk discriminatory performance of the protein marker model was compared with the established PLCO
