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

The FAT1 gene functions as a tumor suppressor or promoter and remains incompletely understood. We examined the clinical significance of FAT1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) using four publicly available HNSCC cohorts and one HNSCC cohort enrolled at a tertiary medical center. We developed FAT1 signatures reflecting FAT1 mutations and mRNA expression using one cohort. Patients with HNSCC were classified into FAT1-associated low risk (FAT1-LR; n = 195) and FAT1-associated high risk (FAT1-HR; n = 371) subgroups. The five-year overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates were significantly lower in the FAT1-HR subgroup than in the FAT1-LR subgroup (P = 0.01 and 0.003, respectively). The clinical significance of FAT1 was validated using four independent cohorts. Cox proportional hazards models showed that the FAT1 signature was an independent prognostic factor for HNSCC patients. In addition, FAT1 signature was associated with the response to radiotherapy, advanced stage, and human papilloma virus (HPV) status in HNSCC patients. In conclusion, the FAT1 gene signature was associated with prognosis of HNSCC and may help to provide personalized treatments for HNSCC patients.
