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

backgroundZFPM2-AS1, as an oncogenic lncRNA, plays an essential role in the progression of several tumors. However, the prognostic significance, biological function, and molecular mechanism of ZFPM2-AS1 in most tumors have not been fully elucidated.

methodsWe analyzed differentially expressed immune-related lncRNAs (IRlncRNAs) and clustered gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) samples based on these lncRNAs expression. Then, WGCNA and survival analysis were performed to determine key IRlncRNA (ZFPM2-AS1) in GAC. The comprehensive analysis was performed to evaluate the association between ZFPM2-AS1 expression and survival, tumor microenvironment (TME), immune-related factors, and related signal pathways in pan-cancers. Furthermore, we constructed a co-expression network of ZFPM2-AS1, and NUP107 and C8orf76 were identified as target mRNAs. We further evaluated the role of NUP107 and C8orf76 in the GAC microenvironment. More importantly, real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was employed to validate ZFPM2-AS1, NUP107 and C8orf76 expression.

resultsZFPM2-AS1 was remarkably overexpressed and correlated with poor overall survival in most tumors. Further analysis showed that ZFPM2-AS1 was related to various immune cells infiltrated in the microenvironment of most tumors. GSEA revealed that ZFPM2-AS1 in GAC was primarily involved in immune-related pathways. Furthermore, NUP107 and C8orf76 were identified as potential target mRNAs of ZFPM2-AS1, which was related to infiltrating immune cells in the GAC microenvironment. qRT-PCR verified that ZFPM2-AS, NUP107 and C8orf76 were highly expressed in gastric cancer cells.

conclusionZFPM2-AS1 could be a potential biomarker for cancer prognosis, and a promising immune target for cancer therapy. Furthermore, ZFPM2-AS1 might play an immunosuppressive role in the GAC microenvironment.
