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 nucleolar RNA SNORD50A and SNORD50B (SNORD50A/B) have increasingly been linked to tumorigenesis due to their high frequency of deletion across multiple cancer types. However, their biological roles in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain to be systematically investigated. In this study, we observed that SNORD50A/B were frequently deleted in lung adenocarcinomas, and this molecular event was strongly linked to poor patient survival. Subsequent in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated the tumor-suppressive role of SNORD50A/B in NSCLC. Mechanistically, SNORD50A/B directly bound to activating signal cointegrator 1 complex subunit 1 (ASCC1), preventing its interaction with activating signal cointegrator 1 (ASC-1) and disrupting the integrity of ASC-1 complex, which attenuates NF-κB transcriptional activity and down-regulates PD-L1 expression. Synthetic Snord50a/b-loaded cationic liposomes showed potent anti-tumor effects and sensitized NSCLC cells to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. Taken together, SNORD50A/B exert tumor-suppressive effects by disrupting the ASC-1 complex to silence NF-κB, highlighting its therapeutic potential via cationic liposomes for treating SNORD50A/B-deficient tumors.
