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

The tumor microenvironment is an important factor for the immunotherapy of tumor patients. The sequenced transcriptome data can be used to describe the tumor microenvironment and various immune subtypes. We exploited published data on patients with uveal melanoma (UVM) to identify immune subtypes. Based on the immune-related gene sets of 80 patients with UVM in the TCGA database, we used consensus clustering to identify two immune subgroups. In the two immune subtypes, we analyzed clinical characteristics and immune infiltration. Class1 has low immune infiltration, contains memory B cells, Th2 cells, Th17 cells, eosinophils, natural killer cells, and has a better prognosis. Class2 has higher immune infiltration. CD8+ T cells, Th1 cells, MDSCs, and Dendritic cells are enriched in class2, which has strong cytolytic activity, high expression of immune checkpoint genes, and poor outcome. Moreover, we have developed and verified an immune characteristic model that can predict the prognosis of patients well. Through this model, we screened prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (
