Gene Expression Patterns in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells in Response to Changes in Deuterium Concentration.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen present in natural water at ~150 ppm, has been implicated in modulating cellular metabolism and tumor progression. While deuterium-depleted water (DDW) has shown anti-cancer effects in preclinical and clinical studies, the underlying transcriptional mechanisms remain incompletely defined. Here, we profiled gene expression in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells cultured for 72 h in media containing four graded deuterium concentrations (40, 80, 150, and 300 ppm) using a targeted NanoString panel of 236 cancer-related genes. After stringent quality filtering, 87 genes were retained and classified into nine distinct expression patterns based on fold-change trends relative to the 150 ppm control. High deuterium (300 ppm) induced strong upregulation (up to 2.1-fold) of oncogenic and survival-related genes (e.g.,
