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

Myeloid cells as a highly heterogeneous subpopulation of the tumor microenvironment (TME) are intimately associated with tumor development. Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is characterized by abundant myeloid cell infiltration in the TME. However, the correlation between myeloid signature genes (MSGs) and the prognosis of EWS patients was unclear. In this research, we synthetically characterized the expression of MSGs in a training cohort and classified EWS patients into two subtypes. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that MSGs subtypes correlated closely with different immune statuses. Furthermore, a three-gene prognostic model (CTSD, SIRPA, and FN1) was constructed by univariate, LASSO, and multivariate Cox analysis, and it showed excellent prognostic accuracy in EWS patients. We also developed a nomogram for better predicting the long-term survival of EWS. Functional enrichment analysis showed immune-related pathways were distinctly different in the high- and low-risk groups. Further analysis revealed that patients in the high-risk group were tightly associated with an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Finally, we validated the expression of these candidate genes by Western blot (WB), qPCR, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. To sum up, our study identified that the MSGs model was strongly linked to prognostic prediction and immune infiltration in EWS patients, providing novel insights into the clinical treatment and management of EWS patients.
