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

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the most frequent types of lung cancer, with a high mortality and recurrence rate. This study aimed to design a RiskScore to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy response of LUAD patients due to a lack of metabolic and immune-related prognostic models. Methods: To identify prognostic genes and generate a RiskScore, we conducted differential gene expression analysis, bulk survival analysis, Lasso regression analysis, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis using TCGA-LUAD as a training subset. GSE31210 and GSE50081 were used as validation subsets to validate the constructed RiskScore. Following that, we explored the connection between RiskScore and clinicopathological characteristics, immune cells infiltration, and immunotherapy. In addition, we investigated into RiskScore's biological roles and constructed a Nomogram model. Results: A RiskScore was identified consisting of five genes (DKK1, CCL20, NPAS2, GNPNAT1 and MELTF). In the RiskScore-high group, LUAD patients showed decreased overall survival rates and shorter progression-free survival. Multiple clinicopathological characteristics and immune cells infiltration in TME, in particular, have been linked to RiskScore. Of note, RiskScore-related genes have been implicated to substance metabolism, carcinogenesis, and immunological pathways, among other things. Finally, the C-index of the RiskScore-based Nomogram model was 0.804 (95% CI: 0.783-0.825), and time-dependent ROC predicted probabilities of 1-, 3- and 5-year survival for LUAD patients were 0.850, 0.848 and 0.825, respectively. Conclusion: The RiskScore, which integrated metabolic and immunological features with DKK1, CCL20, NPAS2, GNPNAT1, and MELTF, could reliably predict prognosis and immunotherapy response in LUAD patients. Moreover, the RiskScore-based Nomogram model had a promising clinical application.
