A comprehensive analysis of gasdermin family gene as therapeutic targets in pan-cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Six members of the gasdermin family are involved in various biological functions in malignant tumors. The present study aimed to perform a comprehensive analysis of gasdermin family genes in pan-cancer. Raw data was acquired from the genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) and the Cancer Genome Atlas. High inter-tumor heterogeneity in the expression between paracancerous and tumor tissues was observed across cancers. Survival analysis confirmed that the risk or protective effects of gasdermin family members on prognosis depended on the cancer types. The mutation frequency appeared to be high, and the mutation group had a worse prognosis. Besides, gasdermin family genes were associated with immune infiltrate subtypes, stromal and immune cell infiltration levels, TMB, MSI, immune checkpoint gene expression, and tumor stemness scores. Moreover, gasdermin family gene expressions affected the expressions of MMR genes and methyltransferases and could predict cancer cells sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs. Subsequently, the findings were double-checked in LIHC and PAAD. GSEA results indicated the gasdermin family genes mainly involved in tumor metabolism and immune microenvironment remodeling related signaling pathways. In conclusion, our findings confirmed that gasdermin family genes were potential therapeutic cancer targets in pan-cancer.
