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

Mitochondrial ribosomal protein L7/L12 (MRPL12) is a member of the mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRPs). However, the biological function of MRPL12 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains unclear. The expression and prognostic value of MRPL12 in LUAD were systematically analyzed using UALCAN, TIMER, HPA, Kaplan-Meier plotter, and GEPIA databases. The relationship between MRPL12 and immune infiltrates was investigated using TIMER and TISIDB databases. The clinical significance of MRPL12 in LUAD patients was validated using a tissue microarray (TMA). Cellular functional experiments were carried out to examine the influences of MRPL12 knockdown on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. MRPL12 was significantly upregulated in LUAD samples, and high MRPL12 expression was correlated with worse prognosis. MRPL12 expression was markedly associated with immunomodulators, chemokines, and infiltration levels of multiple immune cells. Furthermore, TMA results confirm the upregulation of MRPL12 expression in LUAD, and MRPL12 was identified as an independent prognostic factor in LUAD patients. MRPL12 knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells. These data indicate that MRPL12 is a prognostic biomarker and correlated with immune infiltrates in LUAD. Therefore, MRPL12 shows potential as a therapeutic target for LUAD.
