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

backgroundTargeted programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) therapy could effectively improve the long-term prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The role of PD-1 targets in the progression of NSCLC has not been fully revealed.

methodsThe differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in patients' blood after NSCLC treatment with PD-1 blocker nivolumab in the GSE141479 dataset were analyzed by GEO2R and identified in the TCGA database. The mechanism of action involved in the PD-1 target molecules via the Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network shows the relationship between PD-1 target molecules. The factors affecting the prognosis of NSCLC patients were identified via the COX regression analysis and survival analysis to build the risk model and nomogram.

resultsThere were 64 DEGs in patients' blood after nivolumab treatment and 48 DEGs in NSCLC tissues. The PD-1 target molecules involved cell proliferation, DNA replication, cell cycle, lung cancer, and other cellular processes. The prognostic factors CCNA2, CHEK1, DLGAP5, E2F8, FOXM1, HIST1H2BH, HJURP, MKI67, PLK1, TPX2, and TYMS, and the independent factors HIST1H2BH and PLK1, influenced the prognosis of NSCLC patients. HIST1H2BH and PLK1 were overexpressed in LUAD and LUSC tissues. The elevated expression levels of HIST1H2BH and PLK1 were related to the overall survival (OS) and the progression-free survival of NSCLC patients. High-risk NSCLC patients had a poor prognosis and were an independent factor influencing the poor prognosis of NSCLC patients. The high-risk model group was enriched with signaling mechanisms such as cell cycle, DNA replication, and homologous recombination.

conclusionsThe risk model based on PD-1 target molecules was helpful to assess the prognosis of NSCLC patients. HIST1H2BH and PLK1 might become prognostic biomarkers of NSCLC patients.
