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

backgroundColorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the USA. The aim of this study was to establish a tumor gene signature based on tumor stromal cell and autophagy for predicting the risk of recurrence in patients with colorectal cancer.

methodsWe used "Rtsne" and "xCell" R packages to estimate autophagy and stroma status, respectively. The discovery cohort used microarray gene expression data retrieved from the GSE39582 dataset. The Cox regression model and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) were used to identify prognostic genes and to construct an autophagy-stroma-based gene signature. Moreover, external validation was conducted using GSE17538, GSE38832, TCGA database, and patient data obtained from the First Hospital of China Medical University (CMU).

resultsThe LASSO model identified three genes (

conclusionWe have established and verified a feasible prognostic model of colorectal cancer based on autophagy and stromal cell characteristics of patients. The model can be used to evaluate recurrence risk of cancer patients, and the hub genes in the model provide potential targets for targeted colorectal cancer treatment.
