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

Ferroptosis, a form of cell death caused by iron-dependent peroxidation of lipids, plays an important role in cancer. Recent studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the regulation of ferroptosis in tumor cells and are also closely related to tumor immunity. Immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment affects the prognosis and clinical outcome of immunotherapy in melanoma patients, and immune cell classification may be able to accurately predict the prognosis of melanoma patients. However, the prognostic value of ferroptosis-related lncRNAs (FRLs) in melanoma has not been thoroughly explored, and it is difficult to define the immune characteristics of melanoma. We used The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database, and the FerrDb database to identify FRLs. FRLs with prognostic value were evaluated in an experimental cohort utilizing univariate, LASSO (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) and multivariate Cox regression, followed by in vitro assays evaluating the expression levels and the biological functions of three candidate FRLs. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were used to assess the validity of the risk model, and the drug sensitivity of FRLs was examined by drug sensitivity analysis. The differentially expressed genes between the high- and low-risk groups in the risk model were enriched in the immune pathway, and we further found immune gene signatures (IRGs) that could predict the prognosis of melanoma patients through a series of methods including single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA). Finally, two GEO cohorts were used to validate the predictive accuracy and reliability of these two signature models. Our findings suggest that FRLs and IRGs have the potential to predict the prognosis of patients with cutaneous melanoma.
