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

Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is a major gynecological malignancy with a poor prognosis in the advanced stages. Junctional adhesion molecule-like protein (JAML) is gaining attention in cancer biology; however, its role in EC remains unclear. Methods: This study integrated multi-omics data (TCGA, pan-cancer analysis and single-cell transcriptomics), dual independent clinical cohorts (TCGA dataset and an institutional cohort), and Results: In EC, JAML expression was significantly downregulated and correlated with poor prognosis. JAML knockdown promoted cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (all P < 0.01), accompanied by reduced stimulator of interferon genes (STING) phosphorylation (P < 0.01). Low JAML expression correlated with decreased M1 (CD86 Conclusions: These findings suggest that JAML deficiency may suppress cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-STING pathway activation, potentially contributing to M1/M2 macrophage polarization imbalance and facilitating EC progression. Clinically, JAML expression shows promise as a potential biomarker for prognostic stratification and treatment response prediction (chemotherapy/immunotherapy), providing insights for developing precision immunochemotherapy strategies in EC.
