Identification of IRF-associated molecular subtypes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma to characterize immunological characteristics and guide therapy.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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: Recently studies have identified a critical role for interferon regulatory factor (IRF) in modulating tumour immune microenvironment (TME) infiltration and tumorigenesis. Methods: Based on IRF1-9 expression profiles, we classified all ccRCC samples into three molecular subtypes (clusters A-C) and characterized the prognosis and immune infiltration of these clusters. IRFscore constructed by principal component analysis was performed to quantify IRF-related subtypes in individual patients. Results: We proved that IRFscore predicted multiple patient characteristics, with high IRFscore group having poorer prognosis, suppressed TME, increased T-cell exhaustion, increased TMB and greater sensitivity to anti- PD-1/CTLA-4 therapies. Furthermore, analysis of metastatic ccRCC (mccRCC) molecular subtypes and drug sensitivity proved that low IRFscore was more sensitive to targeted therapies. Moreover, IRFscore grouping can be well matched to the immunological and molecular typing of ccRCC. qRT-PCR showed differential expression of IRFs in different cell lines. Conclusions: Evaluating IRF-related molecular subtypes in individual ccRCC patients not only facilitates our understanding of tumour immune infiltration, but also provides more effective clinical ideas for personalised treatment.
