A 20-Gene Signature Predicting Survival in Patients with Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Based on Basement Membrane.
Article in Journal of oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Objectives: The most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma, clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), has a high heterogeneity and aggressive nature. The basement membrane (BM) is known to play a vital role in tumor metastasis. BM-related genes remain untested in ccRCC, however, in terms of their prognostic significance. Methods: BM-related genes were gleaned from the most recent cutting-edge research. The RNA-seq and clinical data of the ccRCC were obtained from TCGA and GEO databases, respectively. The multigene signature was constructed using the univariate Cox regression and the LASSO regression algorithm. Then, clinical features and prognostic signatures were combined to form a nomogram to predict individual survival probabilities. Using functional enrichment analysis and immune-correlation analysis, we investigated potential enrichment pathways and immunological characteristics associated with BM-related-gene signature. Results: In this study, we built a model of 20 BM-related genes and classified them as high-risk or low-risk, with each having its anticipated risk profile. Patients in the high-risk group showed significantly reduced OS compared with patients in the low-risk group in the TCGA cohort, as was confirmed by the testing dataset. Functional analysis showed that the BM-based model was linked to cell-substrate adhesion and tumor-related signaling pathways. Comparative analysis of immune cell infiltration degrees and immune checkpoints reveals a central role for BM-related genes in controlling the interplay between the immune interaction and the tumor microenvironment of ccRCC. Conclusions: We combined clinical characteristics known to predict the prognosis of ccRCC patients to create a gene signature associated with BM. Our findings may also be useful for forecasting how well immunotherapies would work against ccRCC. Targeting BM may be a therapeutic alternative for ccRCC, but the underlying mechanism still needs further exploration.
