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

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a major subtype of non-small cell lung cancer. Despite significant progress in its diagnosis and treatment, the mortality and morbidity rate of LUAD remains high worldwide. The aim of the present study was to perform a systematic investigation of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and identify TME-related genes of prognostic value in patients with LUAD. Firstly, the immune scores and stromal scores of patients with LUAD from The Cancer Genome Atlas were calculated using the Estimation of STromal and Immune cells in MAlignant Tumors using Expression data algorithm, and a total of 281 prognostic TME-related genes were identified. Subsequently, functional analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis revealed that these genes were mainly related to immune response, inflammatory response and chemotaxis. Finally, two independent LUAD cohorts from the Gene Expression Omnibus database were used to validate these genes, and 4 genes (GTPase IMAP family member 1, T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1b, integrin alpha-L and leukocyte surface antigen CD53) were identified, and downregulation of these genes was indicated to be associated with poor overall survival rate in patients with LUAD. In conclusion, a comprehensive analysis of TME was performed and 4 prognostic TME-related genes in patients with LUAD were identified.
