Nucleoporins in Cancer: Functional Roles and Therapeutic Opportunities.
Article in Cancer discovery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) and its building-block proteins, nucleoporins (NUP), play fundamental roles in maintaining cellular fitness by regulating nucleocytoplasmic transport, chromatin and transcriptional activity, and genome stability. These core biological processes are critical for cancer cells, and thus, tumor-driven co-option of NUP-regulated functions has emerged as an important mechanism contributing to the pathogenesis of multiple malignancies. This review discusses how NUP dysregulation mechanistically contributes to tumor initiation and progression and how these insights open opportunities for innovative anticancer therapies, including using clinical-grade molecular glues that induce selective NUP degradation and pharmacologically inhibiting NPC-regulated epigenomic/transcriptomic signaling and nucleocytoplasmic transport. SIGNIFICANCE: Recent studies demonstrate that NUPs play fundamental roles in cancer pathogenesis by dysregulating key NPC functions and driving tumorigenesis and disease progression. NUPs and NPC-regulated mechanisms can be pharmacologically targeted, providing a strong rationale for developing much-needed innovative therapeutic strategies to combat cancer.
