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

Pyroptosis, a form of inflammatory programmed cell death, is accompanied by inflammation and participate in the body's immune response. The expression of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) is associated with tumor prognosis in ovarian cancer (OC), but it is still unknown whether pyroptosis can affect tumor immune microenvironment (TME) of OC. Based on 30 PRGs, we comprehensively assessed the pyroptosis patterns by using PRGscore and correlated them with TME features in 474 OC patients. Finally, we identified three pyroptosis modification patterns and TME immune characteristics of these patterns were in response to three immune phenotypes (immune-desert, immune-inflamed, and immune-excluded phenotypes). PRGscore can predict patient survival, staging, grading, and immunotherapy efficacy. Low PRGscore was associated with better survival advantage and increased mutation burden. Low PRGscore patients showed significantly better therapeutic effects and clinical results in chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Besides, the capability of PRGscore in predicting prognosis and immunotherapy sensitivity was further verified in other three tumor cohorts. In conclusion, the comprehensive assessment of OC pyroptosis modifications can help enhancing our understanding of TME immune infiltration and provide better personalized treatment tactics for OC patients.
