Significance of macrophage infiltration in the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients evaluated by scRNA and bulkRNA analysis.

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
Purpose: To investigate the significance of macrophage infiltration to the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: R language bioinformatics analysis technology, was used to obtain macrophage infiltration-related module genes through WGCNA (Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis). Marker genes of macrophage subtypes were identified using single-cell sequencing of lung adenocarcinoma tissue. Risk score models were constructed and validated using external data cohorts and clinical samples. Results: Analysis of cohorts TCGA-LUAD, GSE11969, GSE31210, GSE50081, GSE72094 and GSE8894, revealed a negative correlation between macrophage infiltration and survival. Immunohistochemical analyses of clinical samples were consistent with these data. Based on cell-cluster-markers and TAMs-related-genes, TOP8 genes were obtained (C1QTNF6, CCNB1, FSCN1, HMMR, KPNA2, PRC1, RRM2, and TK1) with a significant association to prognosis. Risk score models including 9 factors (C1QTNF6, FSCN1, KPNA2, GLI2, TYMS, BIRC3, RBBP7, KRT8, GPR65) for prognosis were constructed. The efficacy, stability and generalizability of the risk score models were validated using multiple data cohorts (GSE19188, GSE26939, GSE31210, GSE50081, GSE42127, and GSE72094). Conclusions: Macrophage infiltration negatively correlates with prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Based on cell-cluster-markers and TAMs-related-genes, both TOP8 genes (C1QTNF6, CCNB1, FSCN1, HMMR, KPNA2, PRC1, RRM2, TK1) and risk score models using C1QTNF6, FSCN1, KPNA2, GLI2, TYMS, BIRC3, RBBP7, KRT8, GPR65 could predict disease prognosis.
