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: Mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is a unique clinicopathological colorectal cancer (CRC) type that has been recognized as a separate entity from non-mucinous adenocarcinoma (NMAC), with distinct clinical, pathologic, and molecular characteristics. We aimed to construct prognostic signatures and identifying candidate biomarkers for patients with MAC. Methods: Differential expression analysis, weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-Cox regression model were used to identify hub genes and construct a prognostic signature based on RNA sequencing data from TCGA datasets. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), cell stemness, and immune infiltration were analyzed. Biomarker expression in MAC and corresponding normal tissues from patients operated in 2020 was validated using immunohistochemistry. Results: We constructed a prognostic signature based on ten hub genes. Patients in the high-risk group had significantly worse overall survival (OS) than patients in the low-risk group (p < 0.0001). We also found that ENTR1 was closely associated with OS (p = 0.016). ENTR1 expression was significantly positively correlated with cell stemness of MAC (p < 0.0001) and CD8+ T cell infiltration (p = 0.01), whereas it was negatively associated with stromal scores (p = 0.03). Finally, the higher expression of ENTR1 in MAC tissues than in normal tissues was validated. Conclusion: We established the first MAC prognostic signature, and determined that ENTR1 could serve as a prognostic marker for MAC.
