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

Immunity plays an important role in tumor development. In this study, we aimed to investigate molecular classification and its prognostic value in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) based on immune signature. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to calculate scores of immune pathways for HCC and hierarchical clustering in two databases (The Cancer Genome Atlas [TCGA], Liver Cancer-RIKEN, JP [LIRI_JP]). The scores of the immune microenvironment and the proportions of 22 immune cells were also calculated. Single-sample GSEA (ssGSEA) was used to screen survival prognosis-related immune pathways and calculate the hazard radio of differentially expressed immune-related genes (IRGs), which were validated in clinical samples and multiple datasets. Based on the immune characteristics, we identified three HCC subtypes, namely immunity high (Immunity_H), immunity medium (Immunity_M), and immunity low (Immunity_L), and confirmed that the classification was reliable and predictable. Immunity_H with a higher immune and stromal score indicated better survival rate. Cox regression analysis showed that
