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 peroxiredoxin family, a crucial regulator of redox reactions, is strongly associated with various tumorigenesis. However, the role of peroxiredoxin4 (PRDX4) in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) remains poorly understood. Methods: Multicenter databases, including GEPIA, HPA, UALCAN, cBioPortal, cancerSEA, STRING, CCLE, and LinkedOmics, comprehensively analyzed transcriptional expression, prognostic value, genetic alterations, signaling pathways, and associated genes of the PRDXs in COAD patients. Colony formation, transwell, flow cytometry, sphere formation, and xenograft assays were performed to validate further Results: Members of the PRDX family were differentially expressed in COAD, with each member showing varying degrees of genetic alterations. Intriguingly, only PRDX4 significantly correlated with COAD prognosis and stage. The single-cell sequencing suggested that PRDX4 is positively correlated with proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion, whereas negatively correlated with stemness. Moreover, PRDX4 involved in a series of critical biological processes, such as cell growth. Furthermore, Conclusions: We identified PRDX4 expression as a novel potential prognostic marker in COAD.
