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

Despite the uniform mortality in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), clinical disease heterogeneity exists with limited genomic differences. A highly aggressive tumor subtype termed 'basal-like' was identified to show worse outcomes and higher inflammatory responses. Here, we focus on the microbial effect in PDAC progression and present a comprehensive analysis of the tumor microbiome in different PDAC subtypes with resectable tumors using metagenomic sequencing. We found distinctive microbial communities in basal-like tumors and identified an increasing abundance of Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas and Sphingopyxis to be highly associated with carcinogenesis. Functional characterization of microbial genes suggested the potential to induce pathogen-related inflammation. Host-microbiota interplay analysis provided new insights into the tumorigenic role of specific microbiome compositions and demonstrated the influence of host genetics in shaping the tumor microbiome. Taken together, these findings indicated that the tumor microbiome is closely related to PDAC oncogenesis and the induction of inflammation. Additionally, our data revealed the microbial basis of PDAC heterogeneity and proved the predictive value of the microbiome, which will contribute to the intervention and treatment of disease.
