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

Emerging evidence has revealed a relationship between lamin B1 (LMNB1) and several cancers such as cervical cancer, liver cancer, and prostate cancer. But no systematic pan-cancer analysis is available. Little is known about the clinical significance and biomarker utility of LMNB1. In this study, we first revealed the key role of LMNB1 in esophageal carcinoma (ESCA) through weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and disease-free survival (DFS) analysis. Based on this result and the datasets of the cancer genome atlas (TCGA), we explored the biomarker utility of LMNB1 across thirty-three tumors. We found that LMNB1 was highly expressed in most of the cancers and significant associations existed between LMNB1 expression and prognosis of cases of nearly half of the cancers. We also found that LMNB1 expression was associated with the infiltration level of Macrophages M1 and T cells CD4 memory activated in some cancers. Moreover, LMNB1 was mainly involved in the functional mechanisms of MRNA binding, olfactory transduction, and gene silencing. Our study first provides a pan-cancer study of LMNB1, thereby offering a relatively comprehensive understanding of the biomarker utility of LMNB1 across thirty-three tumors.
