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

Accumulating evidence has recognized that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are major players in the desmoplastic stroma of ovarian cancer, modulating tumor progression and therapeutic response. However, it is unclear regarding the signatures of CAFs could be utilized to predict the clinical outcomes of ovarian cancer patients. To fill in this gap, we explored the intratumoral compartment of ovarian cancer by analyzing the single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets of ovarian carcinoma samples, and identified two distinct CAFs (tumor-promoting CAF_c1 subtype and myofibroblasts-like CAF_c2 subtype). The clinical significance of CAF subtypes was further validated in The Cancer Genomics Atlas (TCGA) database and other independent immunotherapy response datasets, and the results revealed that the patients with a higher expression of CAF_c1 signatures had a worse prognosis and showed a tendency of resistance to immunotherapy. This work uncovered the signatures of the CAF_c1 subtype that could serve as a novel prognostic indicator and predictive marker for immunotherapy.
