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

backgroundClear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is an aggressive subtype of renal cell carcinoma. X-C motif chemokine receptor 1 (XCR1) exerts important roles in tumor progression; however, its role in ccRCC is unclear.

methodsWe utilized publicly available data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to assess the role of XCR1 in ccRCC and validated the results in 36 samples from patients with ccRCC who underwent curative resection in Xinqiao Hospital Chongqing. XCR1 overexpression was identified in ccRCC, which was confirmed by qRT-PCR assay and immunohistochemical staining of ccRCC samples.

resultsFor the TCGA and clinical data, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that higher XCR1 expression in ccRCC was related to longer overall survival. Cox regression analysis suggested that XCR1 is an independent risk factor for ccRCC. GSEA analysis suggested that XCR1 is associated with the JAK/STAT signaling pathway. XCR1 knockdown by small interfering RNA (siRNA) significantly increased ccRCC cell proliferation and migration, and decreased cell apoptosis.

conclusionWe found higher XCR1 expression in ccRCC compared with that in normal tissues is related to longer overall survival in patients with ccRCC. XCR1 knockdown significantly increased RCC cells proliferation and migration, and decreased apoptosis. XCR1 might be used as a prognostic biomarker in ccRCC in the future.
