Multi-omics analysis of Siglec family genes in cutaneous melanoma.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Melanoma is widely recognized as the most aggressive and fatal type of skin cancer; however, effective prognostic markers are lacking. The sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-type lectin (Siglec) gene family plays an important role in the development of tumors and immune escape, but its prognostic role in melanoma remains unknown. Results: Siglec genes have a high mutation frequency, with up to 8% in SIGLEC7. High expression levels of Siglecs in tumor bulk suggests a better prognosis. Siglecs also show a high degree of synergistic expression. Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the expression of SIGLEC9 in tumor tissue microarray. The expression of SIGLEC9 in tumor tissue without metastasis was higher than that in tumor tissue with metastasis. We used unsupervised clustering to create a high expression of Siglec (HES) cluster and a low expression of Siglec (LES) cluster. The HES cluster correlated with high overall survival and increased expression levels of Siglec genes. The HES cluster also showed significant immune cell infiltration and activation of immune signaling pathways. We used least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis to reduce the dimensionality of Siglec cluster-related genes and constructed a prognostic model composed of SRGN and GBP4, which can risk-stratify patients in both the training and test datasets. Conclusion: We conducted a multi-omics analysis of the Siglec family genes in melanoma and found that Siglecs play an important role in the occurrence and development of melanoma. Typing constructed using Siglecs can show risk stratification and derived prognostic models can predict a patient's risk score. In summary, Siglec family genes are potential targets for melanoma treatment as well as prognostic markers that can direct individualized treatments and improve overall survival.
