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

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a common and lethal hematopoietic malignancy that is highly dependent on the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. Infiltrating immune and stromal cells are important components of the BM microenvironment and significantly influence the progression of AML. This study aimed to elucidate the value of immune/stromal cell-associated genes for AML prognosis by integrated bioinformatics analysis. We obtained expression profiles from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and used the ESTIMATE algorithm to calculate immune scores and stromal scores; we then identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) based on these scores. Overall survival analysis was applied to reveal common DEGs of prognostic value. Subsequently, we conducted a functional enrichment analysis, generated a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and performed an interrelation analysis of immune system processes, showing that these genes are mainly associated with the immune/inflammatory response. Finally, eight genes (CD163, CYP27A1, KCNA5, PPM1J, FOLR1, IL1R2, MYOF, VSIG2) were verified to be significantly associated with AML prognosis in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. In summary, we identified key microenvironment-related genes that affect the outcomes of AML patients and might serve as therapeutic targets.
