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

Background: The concept of individualized therapy has advanced the development of prognostic biomarkers to manage patients with breast cancer (BRCA). Immunotherapy has shown great potential in treating BRCA, and the C-X-C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) has generated interest in regulating tumor progression through the immune microenvironment. Although CXCRs were utilized for prognosis prediction in glioma with favourable capability, the prognostic and therapeutic role of CXCR in BRCA is unclear. Methods: We used The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to analyze 1,095 BRCA patients' transcription, mutation, survival time and survival status. Estimation of STromal and Immune cells in MAlignant Tumor tissues using Expression data (ESTIMATE), Cell-type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT), quanTIseq, and Estimating the Proportion of Immune and Cancer cells (EPIC) algorithms were performed to infer the association of CXCR genes with immune cells. We randomly divided the TCGA dataset into a training set and a validation set according to 1:1, constructed a LASSO Cox regression model based on CXCR family genes using the glmnet R package in the training set, assembled clinical variables to draw a visual Nomogram using the R package rms, and validated the model by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves with clinical decision curves in the validation set efficacy. Results: Compared to normal samples, Conclusions: In summary, CXCR genes were associated with immune infiltration and survival in BRCA patients, and our CXCR-based prognostic model could better predict the prognosis of BRCA patients and provide potential immunotherapy targets for clinical purposes.
