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

purposeThe purpose of this research was to explore the correlation and prognostic significance of FAM83A and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) protein expression in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

methodsA total of 130 LUAD specimens and 50 normal lung tissue specimens were analyzed for both FAM83A and PD-L1 expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. The effect of FAM83A on PD-L1 and ERK pathway was evaluated by RT-PCR and western blot in vitro.

resultsBoth FAM83A and PD-L1 were upregulated in patients with LUAD and co-expression of them was significantly associated with tumor stage, metastasis and worse survival in LUAD. Multivariate cox regression analysis revealed that co-expression of FAM83A and PD-L1 was an independent prognostic factor impacting survival. Moreover, experiments in vitro showed FAM83A could promote the expression of PD-L1 through the ERK pathway.

conclusionFAM83A and PD-L1 may be potential therapeutic targets for LUAD. Co-expression of FAM83A and PD-L1 in tumor cells was a credible biomarker predictor for worse survival in resected cases. FAM83A may promote the expression of PD-L1 through ERK signaling pathway, thus causing immune escape of tumor.
