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

backgroundTo depict the prognostic landscape of gynecological cancers from the perspective of DNA methylation, alternative splicing (AS) and polyadenylation (APA) events and investigate their correlation with immune infiltrates.

methodsMethylation and RNA-seq data and corresponding clinical information regarding gynecologic cancers were used to explore the relationships between changes in DNA methylation, AS and APA events and gynecologic cancer prognosis. QRT-PCR and multiple bioinformatics tools were employed to construct a gene interaction network and explore immune infiltrates.

resultsOnly the mRNA levels of CIRBP and INPP5K were simultaneously significantly decreased in gynecologic cancers and negatively associated with overall survival, which verified by qrt-PCR. We also identified that CIRBP or INPP5K DNA methylation, AS and APA events are prognostic indicators of gynecologic cancers. The activation of T cells might be the main signaling pathway by which these genes modulate cancer progression. CIRBP/INPP5K expression is positively associated with immune infiltration and is a major risk factor of survival, especially among uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) patients.

conclusionAccording to these findings, the DNA methylation, AS and APA events of CIRBP and INPP5K may serve as important prognostic biomarkers and targets in gynecological cancers by modulating T cell infiltration.
