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

Growing evidence indicates a potential correlation between necroptosis and pancreatic cancer, and the relationship between necroptosis, immune infiltration and the microenvironment in pancreatic cancer has drawn increasing attention. However, two-dimensional phenotype and prognostic assessment systems based on a combination of necroptosis and immunity have not been explored. In our present study, we explored the pancancer genomics signature of necroptosis-related molecules, identifying necroptosis-related molecule mutation profiles, expression profiles, and correlations between expression levels and methylation/CNV levels. We identified distinct necroptotic as well as immune statuses in pancreatic cancer, and a high necroptosis phenotype and high immunity phenotype both indicated better prognosis than a low necroptosis phenotype and low immunity phenotype. The two-dimensional phenotype we constructed has ideal discriminative effects on pancreatic cancer prognosis, inflammation, and the immune microenvironment. The "high-necroptosis and high-immunity (HNHI)" group exhibited the best prognosis and the highest proportion of infiltrating immune cells. The NI score can be used to predict patient prognosis and is correlated with the immune microenvironment score, chemotherapeutic drug IC50, and tumor mutational burden. In addition, it may be useful for predicting the effect of individualized chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Our study also revealed that SLC2A1 is associated with both necroptosis and immunity and acts as a potential oncogene in pancreatic cancer. In conclusion, the two-dimensional phenotype and NI score we developed are promising tools for clinical multiomics applications and prediction of chemotherapy and immunotherapy response and present benefits in terms of precision medicine and individualized treatment decision-making for pancreatic cancer patients.
