Low Levels of TRIM28-Interacting KRAB-ZNF Genes Associate with Cancer Stemness and Predict Poor Prognosis of Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma Patients.
Article in Cancers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Krüppel-associated box zinc finger (KRAB-ZNF) proteins are known to regulate diverse biological processes, such as embryonic development, tissue-specific gene expression, and cancer progression. However, their involvement in the regulation of cancer stemness-like phenotype acquisition and maintenance is scarcely explored across solid tumor types, and to date, there are no data for kidney renal clear cell cancer (KIRC). We have harnessed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database transcriptomic data and used several bioinformatic tools (i.e., GEPIA2, GSCALite, TISIDB, GSEA, CIBERSORT) to verify the relation between the expression and genomic alterations in KRAB-ZNFs and kidney cancer, focusing primarily on tumor dedifferentiation status and antitumor immune response. Our results demonstrate a significant negative correlation between KRAB-ZNFs and kidney cancer dedifferentiation status followed by an attenuated immune-suppressive response. The transcriptomic profiles of high KRAB-ZNF-expressing kidney tumors are significantly enriched with stem cell markers and show a depletion of several inflammatory pathways known for favoring cancer stemness. Moreover, we show for the first time the prognostic role for several KRAB-ZNFs in kidney cancer. Our results provide new insight into the role of selected KRAB-ZNF proteins in kidney cancer development. We believe that our findings may help better understand the molecular basis of KIRC.
