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

Objective: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most prevalent lung cancer subtype, but its immune infiltration features are not comprehensively understood. To address the issue, the present study was initiated to describe the immune infiltrations across LUAD from cellular compositional, functional, and mechanism perspectives. Methods: We adopted five LUAD datasets (GSE32863, GSE43458, GSE75037, TCGA-LUAD, and GSE72094). Differentially expressed genes between LUAD and controls were selected for co-expression network analysis. Risky immune cell types were determined for classifying LUAD patients as diverse subtypes, followed by a comparison of antitumor immunity and therapeutic response between subtypes. Then, LUAD- and subtype-related key module genes affected by DNA methylation were determined for quantifying a scoring scheme. EXO1 was chosen for functional analysis Results: Two immune cell infiltration-based subtypes (C1 and C2) were established across LUAD, with poorer prognostic outcomes and lower infiltration of immune cell types in C1. Additionally, C1 presented higher responses to immune checkpoint blockade and targeted agents (JNK inhibitor VIII, BI-D1870, RO-3306, etc.). The scoring system (comprising GAPDH, EXO1, FYN, CFTR, and KLF4) possessed higher accuracy in estimating patients' prognostic outcomes. EXO1 upregulation contributed to the growth, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells. In addition, EXO1 facilitated PD-L1 and sPD-L1 expression in LUAD cells. Conclusion: Altogether, our findings offer a comprehensive understanding of the immune infiltration landscape on prognosis and therapeutic response of LUAD as well as unveil potential epigenetic and transcriptomic mechanisms, which might assist personalized treatment.
