Arginine Transporters in Human Cancers: Emerging Mechanisms and Clinical Implications.
Review in Biomolecules, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid for adults, which serves as a central hub synthesizing various metabolites. Arginine plays a critical role in carcinogensis. As a polar amino acid, the uptake and the transportation of arginine across cell membrane systems rely on transporter proteins. Arginine transporters remain critically important, particularly as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer. Based on the subcellular localization, arginine transporters could be divided into two types: cell membrane arginine transporters and intracellular membrane arginine transporters. This review aims to investigate the latest advancements of arginine transporter proteins in cancer, focusing on their cellular localization, structural characteristics, and mechanism, with the goal of promoting the design and development of targeted anticancer therapeutics against these transporters.
