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

Objective: Biomarkers for pancreatic cancer (PCa) prognosis provide evidence for improving the survival outcome of this disease. This study aimed to identify a prognostic risk model based on gene expression profiling of microarray bioinformatics analysis. Methods: Prognostic immune genes in the TCGA-PAAD cohort were identified using the univariate Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Multivariate Cox regression (stepAIC) was used to identify prognostic genes from the top 20 hub genes in the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. A prognostic risk model was established and its performance in predicting the overall survival in PCa was validated in GSE62452. Gene mutations and infiltration immune cells in PCa tumors were analyzed using online databases. Results: Univariate Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier survival analyses identified 128 prognostic genes. Multivariate Cox regression (stepAIC) identified five prognostic genes (PLCG1, MET, TNFSF10, CXCL9, and TLR3) out of the 20 hub genes in the PPI network. A prognostic risk model was established using the signature of five genes. This model had moderate to high accuracies (AUC > 0.700) in predicting 3-year and 5-year overall survival in TCGA and GSE62452 cohorts. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that high-risk scores were correlated with poor survival outcomes in PCa ( Conclusions: The prognostic risk model was significantly correlated with the survival in PCa patients. This model modulated PCa tumor progression and prognosis by regulating immune cell infiltration.
