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 enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) plays an important role in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and EZH2 in shaping the epigenetic landscape of CD8 Methods: We downloaded and analyzed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), TISIDB database, and WebGestalt for ccRCC patients, EZH2-related tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and immunomodulators. R packages "limma", "BiocManager", and "preprocessCore", etc. were downloaded to prepare CIBERSORT files, immune cells heatmap, multivariable Cox model and survival analysis. The EZH2-regulated immune risk model's prognostic ability was calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and area under the curve (AUC) analyses in R studio. Results: EZH2 was highly expressed and related to poor outcome in ccRCC. However, high-expression EZH2 was not related to a "cool" tumor. Of the 49 immunomodulators significantly regulated by EZH2, forest plot showed 26 immunomodulators signatures independently associated with overall survival. The EZH2-regulated immune-risk score prognostic model was an independent prognostic factor (AUC =0.816), especially combined with clinicopathologic parameters in ccRCC overall survival prediction. Conclusions: The EZH2-regulated immune-risk score prognostic model was an independent prognostic factor, with good accuracy and predictability, and could provide experimental data to the clinical area.
