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

backgroundAlternative splicing contributes to the carcinogenic process of non-small cell lung cancer. Although extensive efforts have characterized cancer-associated alternative splicing events, the upstream regulators governing these aberrant splicing events remain poorly understood.

methodsHere, we integrated multi-omics data from 22 lung adenocarcinoma, 13 lung squamous cell carcinoma and matched adjacent normal tissues of Chinese patients. We aimed to identify cancer-associated splicing events, construct regulatory networks of RBP, miRNA and DNA methylation on them and dissect carcinogenic pathways at integrated multi-omics layers in lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, respectively.

resultsWe identified that immune-suppression pathways and oxidative phosphorylation specifically promote the progression of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, respectively. ATP5F1C exon 9 inclusion in adenocarcinoma and LTBP3 exon 25 exclusion in squamous cell carcinoma, involved in proliferation, invasion and metastasis, are key splicing events with therapeutic potential. Furthermore, we proposed miR-4521-PABPC5-ATP5F1C, miR-4423-3p-IGF2BP3/miR-944-RBMS3-LTBP3 as upstream regulatory axes potentially driving these events. Notably, genome-wide CpG methylation exhibited widespread association with distant splicing events, potentially playing a trans-regulatory role by disrupting splice factor (BCL11B, RUNX1, RUNX2) binding near CpG sites and inhibiting RBMS3 transcription.

conclusionsOur findings shed light on the potential functional impact and multi-layer regulation of cancer-associated splicing events, offering novel insights for splicing-switching therapies to improve non-small cell lung cancer treatment and prognosis.
