GPC1 Is Associated with Poor Prognosis and Treg Infiltration in Colon Adenocarcinoma.
Article in Computational and mathematical methods in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Glypican-1 (GPC1) is a glycosylated protein recognized as a promising biomarker for cancer. Nonetheless, there have been few systematic studies on GPC1 in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). We conducted bioinformatic analysis based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and used clinical samples to verify that GPC1 is overexpressed in colon adenocarcinoma. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that higher GPC1 expression was associated with poor overall survival (OS). The Cox regression model further showed that GPC1 expression is an independent negative prognostic factor for COAD. Gene set enrichment analysis demonstrated that multiple oncogenic signaling pathways were differentially enriched in GPC1 high- versus low-expressing COAD tumors, including DNA methylation, G2/M damage checkpoint, and telomere dysfunction. We observed a positive correlation between GPC1 expression and immune cell infiltration, such as regulatory T cells (Tregs), macrophages, and mast cells, and immunohistochemistry of 50 COAD tissues revealed that GPC1 expression was positively associated with Treg enrichment. Our results provide a promising candidate gene to predict the prognosis of COAD and new insights into tumor immunity. Further research is required to validate these results.
