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

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is a key enzyme in one-carbon (1 C) metabolism, essential for nucleotide synthesis and epigenetic maintenance. In mammals, there are two distinct SHMT isozymes: the cytosolic SHMT1 and the mitochondrial SHMT2. Several studies report that high SHMT levels in cancer contribute to metabolic reprogramming. Conversely, a limited number of studies have linked decreased SHMT1 expression to the progression and poor prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma, suggesting that SHMT may play dual roles as an oncogene or tumor suppressor, depending on the cellular context. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying SHMT tumor suppressor role remain unknown. In this work, we used the Drosophila Ras
