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

Cuproptosis is a new form of copper-dependent programmed cell death commonly occurring within the body. There is emerging evidence indicating that cuproptosis has a significant regulatory function in the onset and progression of cancer. However, it is still unclear how cuproptosis regulates cancer and whether other genes are involved in the regulation. Using the TCGA-COAD dataset of 512 samples, we found that seven of ten cuproptosis markers showed prognostic value in colorectal cancer (CRC) using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Furthermore, 31 prognostic cuproptosis-related genes were identified using weighted gene co-expression network analysis and univariate Cox analysis. Subsequently, we constructed a 7-PCRG signature using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-Cox regression analysis. The risk score predicting survival in patients with CRC was evaluated. Two risk groups were classified based on their risk scores. The two groups revealed a significant difference in immune cells, such as B and T cells. Furthermore, we identified differences in many immune functions and checkpoints, including CD276 and CD28. In vitro experiments showed that a hub cuproptosis-related gene, TIGD1, could significantly regulate cuproptosis in CRC after exposure to elesclomol. This study validated that cuproptosis was closely related to the progression of CRC. Seven new cuproptosis-related genes were identified, and the function of TIGD1 in cuproptosis was preliminarily understood. Since a certain concentration of copper in CRC cells is important, cuproptosis may provide a new target for cancer therapy. This study may provide novel insights into the treatment of CRC.
