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

A common cancer in females, breast cancer (BRCA) mortality has been recently reduced; however, the prognosis of BRCA patients remains poor. This study attempted to develop prognostic immune-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) for BRCA and identify the effects of these lncRNAs on the tumor microenvironment (TME). Gene expression data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were collected in order to select differentially expressed lncRNAs. Immune-related lncRNAs were downloaded from the ImmLnc database, where 316 immune-related lncRNAs were identified, 12 of which were found to be significantly related to the prognosis of BRCA patients. Multivariate cox regression analysis was then applied to construct prognostic immune-related lncRNAs as the risk model, including C6orf99, LINC00987, SIAH2-AS1, LINC01010, and ELOVL2-AS1. High-risk and low-risk groups were distinguished according to the median of immune-related risk scores. Accordingly, the overall survival (OS) in the high-risk group was observed to be shorter than that in the low-risk group. qRT-PCR analysis demonstrated that lncRNA expression levels in BRCA cell lines were in basic agreement with predictions except for LINC00987. By validating numerous clinical samples, lncRNA C6orf99 was shown to be highly expressed in the advanced stage, while LINC01010 and SIAH2-AS1 decreased in the advanced T-stage and M-stage. Moreover, the expression of LINC0098 was found to be significantly decreased among the groups (>50 years old). Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was applied to analyze the cancer hallmarks and immunological characteristics of the high-risk and low-risk groups. Importantly, the TIMER database demonstrated that this immune-related lncRNA risk model for breast cancer is related to the infiltration of immune cells. In conclusion, the results indicated that five immune-related lncRNAs could be used as a prognostic model and may even accelerate immunotherapy for BRCA patients.
