STARD5 as a potential clinical target of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To reveal whether STARD5 is a potential biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of HCC. Using gene expression omnibus and the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) to screen differentially expressed genes in HCC and STARD5 was selected by LASSO algorithm. Then, we analyzed the association between STARD5 and clinical characteristics of HCC patients in TCGA and International Cancer Genome Consortium. Meanwhile, the mRNA and protein level of STARD5 was also verified by collecting 87 cases of HCC patients' liver tissues using qRT-PCR and WB. Next, we applied gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) for pathways analysis of STARD5. Finally, TIMER1.0 and TISIDB were used to explore the correlation of STARD5 with immune cell infiltration. The expression of STARD5 was lower in HCC and negatively correlated with tumor grade (p < 0.05), while high expression of STARD5 suggested a better prognosis for HCC patients (p < 0.01) and it could be an independent prognostic predictor (p < 0.001). Meanwhile, STARD5 also had strong diagnostic accuracy for HCC patients. GSEA revealed that STARD5-related genes were mainly enriched in E2F targets, G2M checkpoint and KRAS signaling. The TIMER1.0 and TISIDB databases found a negative correlation between STARD5 and tumor immune infiltrating cells. STARD5 could be used as a potential target for HCC diagnosis and prognosis.
