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

Pyroptosis, a novel pro-inflammatory type of programmed cell death, is involved in the tumorigenesis of various cancers. Recent findings have implicated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the serial steps of cancer development. However, the expression and prognostic signatures of pyroptosis-related lncRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain largely unknown. Therefore, a pyroptosis-related lncRNA prognostic model was constructed for HCC. Thirty-four pyroptosis-related genes were obtained from previous reviews, and gene expression data were collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Spearman's correlation test was used to identify potential pyroptosis-related lncRNAs. Cox and LASSO regression analyses were used to construct a prognostic model. Subsequently, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to assess the model's predictive ability for the overall survival (OS) of HCC patients. CytoHubba was used to screen out the potential hub gene, whose expression was verified using clinical samples from HCC patients. Finally, nine pyroptosis-related differentially expressed lncRNAs in HCC were identified, and a prognostic model with four pyroptosis-related lncRNAs was constructed with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of approximately 0.734. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis and TCGA revealed different immune infiltration and immune checkpoints between the two risk groups. Moreover, these lncRNAs are closely related to the pyroptosis-related gene, NLRP6, which may be considered a hub gene. NLRP6 was lower-expressed in HCC samples, and patients with lower expression of NLRP6 had the longer OS. In conclusion, NLRP6-dependent pyroptosis-related lncRNAs play important roles in tumor immunity and may be potential predictors and therapeutic targets for HCC.
