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

backgroundPapillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) is the second most common histological type of renal cell carcinoma. The prognosis of local pRCC is better than that of ccRCC, but the situation has changed greatly after pRCC metastasis. Chromatin regulators (CRs) are indispensable in epigenetic regulation, and their abnormal expression in tumors leads to the occurrence and development of tumor. However, the role of CRs in pRCC has not been studied yet. MATERIALS AND

methods291 samples were obtained from TCGA-KIPR cohort. Unsupervised clustering analysis was utilized to divide the patients of pRCC into two subtypes. Lasso Cox regression analysis was performed to construct a CRs_score model for predicting OS. The unique characteristics of different molecular subtypes were determined by TME cell infiltration analysis, GO and KEGG analysis and drug sensitivity analysis. We also carried out drug sensitivity experiments in vitro to verify the effect of signature genes on drug sensitivity to sunitinib.

resultsWe described the transcriptional and genetic alteration of 19 prognosis-related CRs genes in 291 cases of TCGA-KIRP cohort. We identified two distinct molecular subtypes, which have significant differences in prognosis, clinicopathological features and tumor immune microenvironment (TME). Then, four signature genes were selected by lasso regression analysis to construct a CRs_score for predicting OS, and its predictive ability for patients with pRCC was verified. A nomogram was established to improve the clinical applicability of CRs_score. We found that there was a significant difference in the proportion of immune cell infiltration between high- and low-CRs_score. In addition, CRs_score was significantly correlated with chemosensitivity. Finally, we found that SK-RC-39 cell lines were more sensitive to sunitinib after knocking down the signature gene CDCA3, PDIA4, or SUCNR1.

conclusionsOur comprehensive analysis of CRs gene in pRCC showed that CRs gene plays a potential role in TME, prognosis and drug resistance in pRCC. These findings may lay a foundation for further study of the regulatory role of CRs gene in pRCC, and provide a new method for evaluating prognosis and developing more effective targeted therapy.
