Overexpression of TPX2 predicts poor clinical outcome and is associated with immune infiltration in hepatic cell cancer.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Targeting protein for Xenopus kinesin-like protein 2 (TPX2) has been identified as an oncogene in multiple cancers. However, the associations among TPX2 expression, prognosis, and tumor immunity in hepatic cell cancer (HCC) have not been explored. We analyzed TPX2 expression by multiple gene expression databases, including Oncomine, TIMER, and UALCAN. The prognosis effect of TPX2 was analyzed by Kaplan--Meier plotter. The coexpressed genes with TPX2 were analyzed using Linked Omics. The association among TPX2 and immune infiltrates and immune checkpoints was determined by TIMER. It was found that TPX2 expression was notably upregulated in multiple HCC tissues. Overexpression of TPX2 has associations with race, age, weight, clinical stage and tumor grade, as well as poor prognosis in overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and disease-specific survival (DSS). In addition, TPX2 expression has a positive association with the infiltration of immune cells and the expression of immune checkpoint molecules. Coexpressed genes and functional network analysis suggested several potential mechanisms of TPX2 affecting HCC progression. The findings reveal that TPX2 has associations with prognosis and infiltration of immune cells in HCC patients, which has laid a basis for in-depth study of TPX2 role in HCC.
