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

backgroundThe establishment of immunotherapy has led to a new era in oncotherapy. But the signature of immune-related genes (IRGs) in LUAD remains to be elucidated. Here we use integrated analysis to identify IRGs roles in immune signature and detect their relationship with competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks in LUAD progression.

methodsBy analyzing the RNA-seq data from different platforms, we recognized the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of each platform and screened out the top 20 hub IRGs related to immune responses. Then, we applied the CIBERSORT algorithm to explore the landscape of tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TILs) in LUAD and their connection with hub genes. Next, we predicted and validated the upstream miRNAs and lncRNAs according to their expression and prognostic roles. Finally, we constructed and validated an immune-related ceRNA network by co-expression analysis.

resultsA total of 71 IRGs were identified among 248 DEGs, which play key roles in immune responses. CIBERSORT analysis showed that six hub genes were closely related to TILs, such as SPP1 and naive B cells (

conclusionWe elucidated two immune-related ceRNA networks in LUAD progression, which can be considered as immunotherapy targets for this disease.
