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

Precision oncology is an absolute need today due to the emergence of treatment resistance and heterogeneity among cancerous profiles. Target-propelled cancer therapy is one of the treasures of precision oncology which has come together with substantial medical accomplishment. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in males, with tremendous biological heterogeneity in molecular and clinical behavior. The spectrum of molecular abnormalities and varying clinical patterns in prostate cancer suggest substantial heterogeneity among different profiles. To identify novel therapeutic targets and precise biomarkers implicated with prostate cancer, we performed a state-of-the-art bioinformatics study, beginning with analyzing high-throughput genomic datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) suggests a set of five dysregulated hub genes (MAF, STAT6, SOX2, FOXO1, and WNT3A) that played crucial roles in biological pathways associated with prostate cancer progression. We found overexpressed STAT6 and SOX2 and proposed them as candidate biomarkers and potential targets in prostate cancer. Furthermore, the alteration frequencies in STAT6 and SOX2 and their impact on the patients' survival were explored through the cBioPortal platform. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis suggested that the alterations in the candidate genes were linked to the decreased overall survival of the patients. Altogether, the results signify that STAT6 and SOX2 and their genomic alterations can be explored in therapeutic interventions of prostate cancer for precision oncology, utilizing early diagnosis and target-propelled therapy.
