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.
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
backgroundDysregulated lipid metabolism and chemoresistance are key drivers of breast cancer progression. Lectin, mannose-binding 2 (LMAN2) is frequently overexpressed in human breast tumors and functions as an oncogenic driver. However, whether LMAN2 contributes to chemoresistance remains unknown.
methodsWe integrated multi-omics data from 1,085 primary tumors and matched normal tissues (from GEPIA and UALCAN) with functional studies in breast cancer cell lines and a doxorubicin (ADM)-treated nude mouse xenograft model. LMAN2 expression was modulated via siRNA/shRNA-mediated silencing or lentivirus-driven overexpression. Cellular phenotypes-including proliferation, migration, apoptosis, and response to ADM were systematically assessed. RNA-sequencing, untargeted lipidomics, and rescue experiments identified stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) as a critical downstream effector. IC50 shifts and epistasis analysis further validated the role of the LMAN2/SCD axis in chemoresistance.
resultsLMAN2 mRNA was elevated across all molecular subtypes (luminal > HER2 > triple-negative) and predicted poorer overall survival (P = 5 × 10
conclusionsLMAN2 is a robust prognostic biomarker that promotes breast tumor growth and anthracycline resistance by enabling SCD-dependent lipid desaturation. Therapeutic targeting of the LMAN2/SCD axis represents a promising strategy to overcome chemoresistance in breast cancer.
