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

purposeWe aimed to elucidate the potential mechanisms of effective responsiveness to PD-1 monoclonal antibody and evaluate more reliable biomarkers to improve the ability to predict the populations of cervical cancer (CC) suitable for immunotherapy.

methodsPeripheral blood samples of CC patients undergoing anti-PD-1 therapy were collected before and after treatment. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed between partial response (PR) and progressive disease (PD) patients. A novel prognostic inflammation and immune-related response gene (IRRG) model was constructed and its prognostic role, correlation with tumor immunity and tumor mutation were evaluated.

resultsDEGs in PR patient after treatment could predict the response to PD-1 monoclonal antibodies. Among PR-specific pathways, tumor immunity, leukocyte migration, and cytokine activities were prominently enriched. Additionally, an IRRG signature comprising CTLA4, AZU1, C5, LAT, CXCL2, GDF7, MPL, PPARG and CELA1 was established and validated to predict the prognosis of CC with great accuracy and specificity. This signature could reflect the tumor microenvironment (TME) and tumor mutational burden (TMB). We also found stimulated adaptive immunity and downregulated inflammation at baseline in patients with sensitive responses to PD-1 monoclonal antibody.

conclusionWe developed an IRRG signature and verified that it was an independent prognostic factor for predicting survival and could reflect a sensitive response to PD-1 monoclonal antibody, which plays a nonnegligible role in the TME of CC. Further investigations are warranted to confirm that patients with stimulated adaptive immunity and downregulated inflammation at baseline could achieve a better survival benefit from PD-1 monoclonal antibody.
