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

background and purposeHead and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC), characterized by immunosuppression, is a group of highly heterogeneous cancers. Although immunotherapy exerts a promising influence on HNSCC, the response rate remains low and varies in assorted primary sites. Immunological mechanisms underlying HNSCC pathogenesis and treatment response are not fully understood. This study aimed to develop a differentially expressed genes (DEGs)-based risk model to predict immunotherapy efficacy and stratify prognosis of HNSCC patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe expression profiles of HNSCC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The tumor microenvironment and immune response were estimated by cell type identification via estimating relative subset of known RNA transcripts (CIBERSORT) and immunophenoscore (IPS). The differential expression pattern based on human papillomavirus status was identified. A DEGs-based prognostic risk model was developed and validated. All statistical analyses were performed with R software (version 3.6.3).

resultsBy using the TCGA database, we identified

conclusionCollectively, we established a reliable DEGs-based risk model with potential prognostic value and capacity to predict the immunophenotype of HNSCC patients.
