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

Fibronectin 1 (FN1) is a glycoprotein found throughout the extracellular matrix that has a role in the onset and progression of cancer. However, its immune relationship with gastric cancer is still unclear. FN1 was systematically reviewed by Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), Linked Omics, Tumor IMmune Estimation Resource (TIMER), and Kaplan-Meier (KM) plotter analysis. The TIMER, GEPIA, TISIDB, and cBioPortal databases investigated the association of FN1 with tumor immune infiltration and validated using immunohistochemistry. We discovered that tumor tissue expresses FN1 at a higher level than neighboring tissue, and those genes coexpressed with FN1 have a poor prognosis. At the same time, we discovered that increased FN1 expression was related to immunological infiltration, particularly macrophage infiltration. Using immunohistochemistry, we discovered that FN1 expression was tightly connected to M2 macrophages. It can be concluded that FN1 can affect the immunological microenvironment and is a prognostic marker in gastric cancer.
