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

Different subtypes of gastric cancer differentially respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). This study aimed to investigate whether the Estimation of STromal and Immune cells in Malignant Tumor tissues using Expression data (ESTIMATE) algorithm is related to the classification and prognosis of gastric cancer and to establish an ESTIMATE-based gene signature to predict the prognosis for patients. The immune/stromal scores of 388 gastric cancer patients from TCGA were used in this analysis. The upregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in patients with high stromal/immune scores were identified. The immune-related hub DEGs were selected based on protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis. The prognostic values of the hub DEGs were evaluated in the TCGA dataset and validated in the GSE15460 dataset using the Kaplan-Meier curves. A prognostic signature was built using the hub DEGs by Cox proportional hazards model, and the accuracy was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Different subtypes of gastric cancer had significantly different immune/stromal scores. High stromal scores but not immune scores were significantly associated with short overall survivals of TCGA patients. Nine hub DEGs were identified in PPI analysisThe expression of these hub DEG negatively correlated with the overall survival in the TCGA cohort, which was validated in the GSE15460 cohort. A 9-gene prognostic signature was constructed. The risk factor of patients was calculated by this signature. High-risk patients had significantly shorter overall survival than low-risk patients. ROC analysis showed that the prognostic model accurately identified high-risk individuals within different time frames. We established an effective 9-gene-based risk signature to predict the prognosis of gastric cancer patients, providing guidance for prognostic stratification.
