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

backgroundOur previous study suggested that SMC1 has significant functions in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, few reports have shown the effects of structural maintenance of chromosomes 1 (SMC1A) on the immune microenvironment and tumor stem cells.

methodsThe Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, CPTAC database, Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database, the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and Tumor Immune Single-cell Hub were used. Flow cytometry and immunohistochemical analysis were checked for immune infiltration on MC38 mice model. Human CRC tissues were tested with RT-qPCR.

resultsThe mRNA and protein levels of SMC1A were increased in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) samples. SMC1A was associated with DNA activity. Interestingly, SMC1A was highly expressed in many types of immune cells at single-cell levels. Moreover, the high expression of SMC1A was positively correlated with immune infiltration, and immunohistochemical analysis showed that SMC1A was positively associated with CD45 expression in MC38 mice model. Also, the percentage of IL4

conclusionSMC1A may be a bidirectional target switch that simultaneously regulates the immune microenvironment and tumor stem cells. Moreover, SMC1A may be a biomarker for the prediction of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy.
