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

IQ motif containing GTPase-activating protein 3 (IQGAP3) is a member of the Rho family of guanosine-5'-triphosphatases (GTPases). IQGAP3 plays a crucial part in the development and progression of several types of cancer. However, the prognostic, upstream-regulatory, and immunological roles of IQGAP3 in human cancer types are not known. We found that IQGAP3 expression was increased in different types of human cancer. The high expression of IQGAP3 was correlated with tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, and a poor prognosis in diverse types of human cancer. The DNA methylation of IQGAP3 was highly and negatively correlated with IQGAP3 expression in diverse cancer types. High DNA methylation in IQGAP3 was correlated with better overall survival in human cancer types. High mRNA expression of IQGAP3 was associated with tumor mutational burden, microsatellite instability, immune cell infiltration, and immune modulators. Analyses of signaling pathway enrichment showed that IQGAP3 was involved in the cell cycle. IQGAP3 expression was associated with sensitivity to a wide array of drugs in cancer cells lines. We revealed that polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1) and an IQGAP3-associated lncRNA (IQGAP3AR)/let-7c-5p axis were potential regulations for IQGAP3 expression. We provided the first evidence to show that an IQGAP3AR/let-7c-5p/IQGAP3 axis has indispensable roles in the progression and immune response in different types of human cancer.
