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

Urothelial cancer (UC) is one of the common refractory tumors and chemotherapy is the primary treatment for it. The advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has facilitated the development of treatment strategies for UC patients. To screen out UC patients sensitive to ICI, researchers have proposed that PD-L1, tumor mutation burden and TCGA molecular subtypes can be used as predictors of ICI efficacy. However, the performance of these predictors needs further validation. We need to identify novel biomarkers to screen out UC patients sensitive to ICI. In our study, we collected the data of two clinical cohorts: the ICI cohort and the TCGA cohort. The result of the multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that glycogen metabolism score (GMS) (HR = 1.26,
