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

GSDM family is a group of critical proteins that mediate pyroptosis and plays an important role in cell death and inflammation. However, their specific function in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC, KIRC) have not been clarified comprehensively. In this study, we assessed the roles of the GSDM family in expression, prognostic value, functional enrichment analysis, genetic alterations, immune infiltration and DNA methylation in ccRCC patients by using different bioinformatics databases. We found that the expression levels of GADMA-E were significantly higher in ccRCC tissues compared with normal tissues, while the expression level of PJVK was decreased. Moreover, survival analysis indicated that upregulation of GSDME was related to poor overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) of ccRCC patients. The main function of differentially expressed GSDM homologs was related to ion transport. We also found that the expression profiles of the GSDM family were highly correlated with infiltrating immune cells (i.e., CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, B cells, macrophages, neutrophils and dendritic cells), and there were significant differences in the expression of GSDM family in different ccRCC immune subtypes. Furthermore, DNA methylation analysis indicated that the DNA methylation levels of GSDMA/B/D/E were decreased, while the DNA methylation level of PJVK was increased. In conclusion, this study provides integrated information about abnormal GSDM family members as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of ccRCC. Especially, GSDME was a potential clinical target and prognostic biomarkers for patients with ccRCC.
