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: C15orf48 was recently identified as an inflammatory response-related gene; however there is limited information on its function in tumors. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the function and potential mechanism of action of C15orf48 in cancer. Methods: We evaluated the pan-cancer expression, methylation, and mutation data of C15orf48 to analyze its clinical prognostic value. In addition, we explored the pan-cancer immunological characteristics of C15orf48, especially in thyroid cancer (THCA), by correlation analysis. Additionally, we conducted a THCA subtype analysis of C15orf48 to determine its subtype-specific expression and immunological characteristics. Lastly, we evaluated the effects of C15orf48 knockdown on the THCA cell line, BHT101, by Results: The results of our study revealed that C15orf48 is differentially expressed in different cancer types and that it can serve as an independent prognostic factor for glioma. Additionally, we found that the epigenetic alterations of C15orf48 are highly heterogeneous in several cancers and that its aberrant methylation and copy number variation are associated with poor prognosis in multiple cancers. Immunoassays elucidated that C15orf48 was significantly associated with macrophage immune infiltration and multiple immune checkpoints in THCA, and was a potential biomarker for PTC. In addition, cell experiments showed that the knockdown of C15orf48 could reduce the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis abilities of THCA cells. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that C15orf48 is a potential tumor prognostic biomarker and immunotherapy target, and plays an essential role in the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of THCA cells.
