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

backgroundThe primary cause of poor prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients is metastasis; however, little is known about the underlying mechanisms mediated by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME).

methodsWe conducted comprehensive molecular and cellular analyses, including RNA sequencing, immunohistochemistry, coculture experiments, and genetic mouse models, to investigate the role of the CD248-periostin-integrin β1 (ITGB1) axis in NSCLC metastasis.

resultsWe demonstrated that CD248

conclusionsOur results collectively suggested a CD248-YAP1-Periostin-ITGB1 axis that contributes to a prometastatic feedback loop in NSCLC, indicating that focusing on this axis may be a viable therapeutic approach to prevent NSCLC metastasis.
