Abnormal Expression of N6-Methyladenosine RNA Methylation Regulator IGF2BP3 in Colon Cancer Predicts a Poor Prognosis.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
The value of insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3), an N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation regulatory factor, in the prognosis of colon cancer was still unclear. High levels of IGF2BP3 were expressed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) samples and in human colon cancer tissues, which was associated with poorer overall survival (OS). We validated IGF2BP3 as an independent prognostic risk biomarker in COAD patients. Moreover, functional enrichment analysis suggested that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of groups with high versus low IGF2BP3 expression were related to immune- and cancer-related pathways. Furthermore, the tumor microenvironments of high- versus low-IGF2BP3 expression groups showed significant differences and IGF2BP3 predicted the efficiency of immunotherapy. Finally, protein-protein interaction network analysis suggested that there was a direct or indirect interaction among IGF2BP3, WNT7B, VANGL2, NKD1, AXIN2, RNF43, and CDKN2A. In brief, IGF2BP3 was confirmed as an independent prognostic signature in COAD patients and might be a therapeutic target in this study. Moreover, IGF2BP3 could be used in personalized immunotherapy for COAD.
