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

Background: As a key regulator of metabolic pathways, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has received much attention for its relationship with reprogrammed fatty acid metabolism (FAM). This study aimed to investigate the role of the FAM-related lncRNAs in the prognostic management of patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) using bioinformatics analysis techniques. Methods: We obtained LUAD-related transcriptomic data and clinical information from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The lncRNA risk models associated with FMA were constructed by single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA), weighted gene co-expression network (WGCNA), differential expression analysis, overlap analysis, and Cox regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to assess the predictive validity of the risk model. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) revealed molecular mechanisms associated with the risk model. ssGSEA and microenvironment cell populations-counter (MCP-counter) demonstrated the immune landscape of LUAD patients. The relationships between lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs were predicted by using LncBase v.2 and miRTarBase. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network was visualized with Cytoscape v3.4.0. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis was performed using DAVID v6.8. Quantitative real-time fluorescence PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to verify the expression levels of the prognostic lncRNAs. Results: We identified 249 differentially expressed FMA-related lncRNAs in TCGA-LUAD, six of which were used to construct a risk model with appreciable predictive power. GSVA results suggested that the risk model may be involved in regulating fatty acid synthesis/metabolism, gene repair, and immune/inflammatory responses in the LUAD process. Immune landscape analysis demonstrated a lower abundance of immune cells in the high-risk group of patients associated with poor prognosis. Moreover, we predicted 279 competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanisms for 6 prognostic lncRNAs with 39 miRNAs and 201 mRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that the ceRNA network may be involved in the process of LUAD by participating in genomic transcription, influencing the cell cycle, and regulating tissue and organogenesis. Conclusion: In summary, the prognostic factors identified in this study can be used as potential biomarkers for clinical applications. ceRNA network construction provides a new vision for the study of LUAD pathogenesis.
