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

Introduction: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a fatal disease characterized by promoting connective tissue proliferation in the stroma. Activated cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a key role in fibrogenesis in PAAD. CAF-based tumor typing of PAAD has not been explored. Methods: We extracted single-cell sequence transcriptomic data from GSE154778 and CRA001160 datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus or Tumor Immune Single-cell Hub to collect CAFs in PAAD. On the basis of Seurat packages and new algorithms in machine learning, CAF-related subtypes and their top genes for PAAD were analyzed and visualized. We used CellChat package to perform cell-cell communication analysis. In addition, we carried out functional enrichment analysis based on clusterProfiler package. Finally, we explored the prognostic and immunotherapeutic value of these CAF-related subtypes for PAAD. Results: CAFs were divided into five new subclusters (CAF-C0, CAF-C1, CAF-C2, CAF-C3, and CAF-C4) based on their marker genes. The five CAF subclusters exhibited distinct signaling patterns, immune status, metabolism features, and enrichment pathways and validated in the pan-cancer datasets. In addition, we found that both CAF-C2 and CAF-C4 subgroups were negatively correlated with prognosis. With their top genes of each subclusters, the sub-CAF2 had significantly relations to immunotherapy response in the patients with pan-cancer and immunotherapy. Discussion: We explored the heterogeneity of five subclusters based on CAF in signaling patterns, immune status, metabolism features, enrichment pathways, and prognosis for PAAD.
