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

Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays important roles in prognosis and immune evasion. However, the relationship between TME-related genes and clinical prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and immunotherapy response in breast cancer (BRCA) remains unclear. This study described the TME pattern to construct a TME-related prognosis signature, including risk factors PXDNL, LINC02038 and protective factors SLC27A2, KLRB1, IGHV1-12 and IGKV1OR2-108, as an independent prognostic factor for BRCA. We found that the prognosis signature was negatively correlated with the survival time of BRCA patients, infiltration of immune cells and the expression of immune checkpoints, while positively correlated with tumor mutation burden and adverse treatment effects of immunotherapy. Upregulation of PXDNL and LINC02038 and downregulation of SLC27A2, KLRB1, IGHV1-12 and IGKV1OR2-108 in high-risk score group synergistically contribute to immunosuppressive microenvironment which characterized by immunosuppressive neutrophils, impaired cytotoxic T lymphocytes migration and natural killer cell cytotoxicity. In summary, we identified a TME-related prognostic signature in BRCA, which was connected with immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoints, immunotherapy response and could be developed for immunotherapy targets.
