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

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive neuroendocrine (NE) carcinoma characterized by early metastasis and an immune-cold microenvironment. We show that UHRF1, a chromatin-associated effector of RB1/E2F signaling, promotes SCLC growth and metastasis across major molecular subtypes. Using human SCLC cell lines, orthotopic and intracardiac xenografts, and genetically engineered mouse models, we found that loss of UHRF1 reduces proliferation, invasion, tumor burden, and metastasis while reprogramming tumors away from NE states toward an inflamed transcriptional program. UHRF1-deficient tumors upregulate chemokines and exhibit increased infiltration of CD8
