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

backgroundIncreased evidence supports the relationship between chromobox protein homolog 3 (CBX3) and tumorigenesis of some cancers. However, the role of CBX3 in pan-cancers remains poorly defined. In the research, we aimed to investigate the prognostic value and the immunological functions of CBX3.

resultsWe explored the potential oncogenic roles of CBX3 in mRNA and protein levels based on the diverse databases, including the expression, the correlation with prognosis, tumor microenvironment (TME), DNA methylation, protein phosphorylation and enrichment analysis across all TCGA tumors. The results show that CBX3 is overexpressed in multiple cancers, and significant correlations exist between high expression and adverse prognosis in most tumor patients. We observed an enhanced phosphorylation level in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma, colon cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. A distinct relationship was also found between CBX3 expression and TME, including immune infiltration of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and cancer-associated fibroblasts, immune score or matrix score, immune checkpoints. The correlative transcription factors and miRNAs of CBX3-binding hub genes were analyzed to investigate the molecular mechanism. Moreover, alcoholism and alteration of DNA cellular biology may be involved in the functional mechanisms of CBX3.

conclusionThe first pan-cancer study offers a relatively comprehensive cognition on the oncogenic roles of CBX3 as a prognostic and immunological marker in various malignant tumors.
