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

backgroundTumor mutational burden (TMB) is an important independent biomarker for the response to immunotherapy in multiple cancers. However, the clinical implications of TMB in gastric cancer (GC) have not been fully elucidated.

aimTo explore the landscape of mutation profiles and determine the correlation between TMB and microRNA (miRNA) expression in GC.

methodsGenomic, transcriptomic, and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas were used to obtain mutational profiles and investigate the statistical correlation between mutational burden and the overall survival of GC patients. The difference in immune infiltration between high- and low-TMB subgroups was evaluated by Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Furthermore, miRNAs differentially expressed between the high- and low-TMB subgroups were identified and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method was employed to construct a miRNA-based signature for TMB prediction. The biological functions of the predictive miRNAs were identified with DIANA-miRPath v3.0.

resultsC>T single nucleotide mutations exhibited the highest mutation incidence, and the top three mutated genes were
