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

backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are versatile in functions and can regulate cancer development, including the modulation of cancer immunity. Immune-related lncRNA signatures predicting prognosis have been reported in multiple cancers, but relevant studies in gastric cancer (GC) are still lacking.

methodsWe performed a comprehensive analysis using TCGA and Immport databases and identified an immune-related lncRNA signature by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis. qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry assays were used for further validation. KEGG and GO analysis and ceRNA network establishment were carried out to explore the regulatory functions.

resultsWe first identified an immune-related lncRNA signature, which can stratify gastric cancer patients into high- and low-risk subgroups and the high-risk cases frequently suffered from shorter overall survival time. Next, we validated the reliability of the lncRNA signature in an independent 75 gastric cancer samples and demonstrated that the three-year survival rate in high-risk patients was only 30.8%

conclusionsThese results showed that the immune-related lncRNA signature had a prominent capacity to predict overall survival and the immune status of microenvironment in gastric cancer. Our findings may be useful for the risk-stratification management and provide a valuable clue to identify proper patients potentially benefit from immune checkpoint therapy in gastric cancer.
