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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) increases the risk of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), yet its molecular pathogenesis remains unclear. We conducted multi-omics analysis, including single-cell RNA sequencing and digital spatial profiling, on LUSC specimens from seven patients with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). In UIP lung tissue, metaplastic basal cells arising from the transdifferentiation of alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells were increased. LUSC tumors arising within UIP exhibited molecular profiles and trajectory dynamics suggesting derivation from these metaplastic basal cells. Both UIP-affected tissue and associated tumors showed activation of Wnt signaling, particularly
