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

SLC2A3 is a ferroptosis marker engaged in transmembrane glucose transport. However, the effect of SLC2A3 on the prognosis of patients with cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the prognostic implications of SLC2A3 and its underlying immune mechanisms in gastric cancer. The mRNA expression profiles and corresponding clinical data of patients with gastric cancer were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus databases. Differentially expressed genes related to SLC2A3 were identified using the R package "limma." Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses, gene set enrichment analysis, and gene set variation analysis were used to explore the underlying mechanisms. The protein-protein and miRNA interaction networks were analyzed using Cytoscape software. Immune cell infiltration was assessed using single-sample gene set enrichment analysis. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed the relationship between SLC2A3 expression and prognosis. SLC2A3 was found to be highly expressed in tumor tissues and was associated with an unfavorable prognosis in patients with gastric cancer. Functional enrichment analysis showed that SLC2A3 is related to cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, T cell receptor signaling pathway, B cell receptor signaling pathway, and immune checkpoints. SLC2A3 is also involved in immune response regulation and is regulated by multiple miRNAs, including miR-195-5p, miR-106a-5p, miR-424-5p, and miR-16-5p. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that SLC2A3 can be used as an independent prognostic factor for predicting the outcome in patients with gastric cancer. SLC2A3 and related miRNAs are potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
