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

backgroundPrevious studies have identified LCP1 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in several cancers. However, the role of LCP1 in gastric cancer (GC) and its effect on tumor immune infiltration remain unclear.

objectiveThe aim was to explore the role of LCP1 in GC and its effect on tumor immune infiltration.

methodsWe explored the expression of LCP1 relative to clinicopathology in GC patients by bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemistry. Using cBioportal database, we analyzed the characteristic genetic variations of LCP1 in GC. In addition, we evaluated the correlation between LCP1 expression and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) using R software, TIMER and TISIDB databases. Finally, we analyzed the biological functions in which LCP1 may participate and the signaling pathways it may regulate.

resultsHere, we showed that LCP1 expression is significantly correlated with tumor aggressiveness and poor prognosis in GC patients. Additionally, the results indicated that LCP1 was associated with TILs, including both immunosuppressive and immunosupportive cells, and was strongly correlated with various immune marker sets in GC. GSEA analysis demonstrated that LCP1 expression played an important role in lymphocyte formation and immune reaction.

conclusionsLCP1 may be a potential prognostic biomarker for GC patients and a marker for tumor immunotherapy.
