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

Oncofetal reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment is clinically relevant. This study used the non-negative matrix factorial (NMF) algorithm for single-cell RNA sequencing data of gastric cancer (GC) based on embryonic stem genes. Pseudotime analysis, cell-cell interaction analysis, and SCENIC analysis revealed that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), tumor-associated endothelial cells (TECs), and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have different oncofetal reprogramming that affects cell function, enhances intercellular communication, and activates multiple transcription factors in these cells. Furthermore, based on the signatures of the newly defined oncofetal cell subtypes and expression profiles of large cohorts in GC patients, we determined that GJA1 + TEC-C2, IFITM1 + CAF-C3, PODXL + TEC-C1, SFRP2 + CAF-C2, and SRSF7 + CAF-C1 are crucial prognostic factors for GC patients and predictors of immune checkpoint blockade in GC. Cell subtypes were validated by immunohistochemical methods. Our novel, profound, and systematic analysis of the oncofetal reprogramming of GC may facilitate the development of improved drugs for treating GC.
