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

With the increasing incidence and mortality of renal cancer, it is pressing to find new biomarkers and drug targets for diagnosis and treatment. However, as one negative upstream regulator of p53, the prognostic and immunological role of NFE2L3 in renal cancer is still barely known. We investigated the expression, prognostic value, and relevant pathways of NFE2L3 using the datasets from public databases, including The Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA), Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx), Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), and UALCAN. Furthermore, we analyzed the relationship between NFE2L3 expression and the immune microenvironment using distinct methods. We found that NFE2L3 was higher expressed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) and kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP) tissues than adjacent normal tissues. Additionally, we identified NFE2L3 as one survival-related factor for KIRC and KIRP. The enrichment analyses revealed that NFE2L3 was associated with a variety of immune-relevant pathways in KIRC and related to the infiltration ratios of 17 types of immune cells in KIRC patients. Ultimately, we demonstrated nine significantly enriched mutations, such as TP53 and MET, in NFE2L3-expression-changing groups. The elevated expression of NFE2L3 in renal cancerous tissues versus normal tissues is associated with poor outcomes in patients. Besides, NFE2L3 has a role in the regulation of the immune microenvironment in renal cancer patients. The findings of our study provide a potential prognostic biomarker and a new drug target for renal cancer.
