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

backgroundmRNA vaccines are emerging as new targets for cancer immunotherapy. However, the potential tumor antigens for mRNA vaccine design in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain to be elucidated.

methodsGenetic and RNA-Seq data were obtained from TCGA and ICGC. Tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) were identified by differential expression, mutation status, HLA binding, antigen-presenting cell (APC) correlation, immune checkpoint (ICP) relevance and prognosis. Consensus clustering was used for patient classification. The molecular and immune status of TSAs and clustered patients, including prognostic ability, tumor microenvironment, tumor-related signature and tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE), were further characterized.

resultsFive dysregulated and mutated TSAs were identified in HCC (TSA5): FXYD6, JAM2, GALNT16, C7, and CCDC146. Seven immune gene modules and five immune subtypes (IS1-IS5) of HCC were identified. The immune subtypes and TSA5-related modules showed distinct molecular, cellular and clinical characteristics. According to our study, IS1 patients may be suitable for vaccination.
