Mitophagy-associated genes PINK1 and PARK2 are independent prognostic markers of survival in papillary renal cell carcinoma and associated with aggressive tumor behavior.

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 aim of this study was to investigate the mitophagy-related genes PINK1 and PARK2 in papillary renal cell carcinoma and their association with prognosis. In silico data of PINK1 and PARK2 were analyzed in TCGA cohorts of papillary renal cell carcinoma comprising 290 tumors and 33 corresponding non-neoplastic renal tissues. Protein expression data from a cohort of 95 papillary renal cell carcinoma patients were analyzed and associated with clinical-pathological parameters including survival. PINK1 and PARK2 were significantly downregulated in papillary renal cell carcinoma at transcript and protein levels. Reduced transcript levels of PINK1 and PARK2 were negatively associated with overall survival (p < 0.05). At the protein level, PARK2 and PINK1 expression were positively correlated (correlation coefficient 0.286, p = 0.04) and reduced PINK1 protein expression was prognostic for shorter survival. Lower PINK1 protein levels were found in tumors with metastases at presentation and in tumors of higher pT-stages. The multivariate analysis revealed mRNA expression of PINK1 and PARK2 as well as PINK1 protein expression as independent prognostic factors for shorter overall survival. The downregulation of PINK1 is a strong predictor of poor survival in papillary renal cell carcinoma. Immunohistochemical PINK1 expression in resected pRCC should be considered as an additional prognostic marker for routine practice.
