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

backgroundRNA modifications, TME, and cancer stemness play significant roles in tumor development and immunotherapy. The study investigated cross-talk and RNA modification roles in the TME, cancer stemness, and immunotherapy of gastric cancer (GC).

methodsWe applied an unsupervised clustering method to distinguish RNA modification patterns in GC. GSVA and ssGSEA algorithms were applied. The WM_Score model was constructed for evaluating the RNA modification-related subtypes. Also, we conducted an association analysis between the WM_Score and biological and clinical features in GC and explored the WM_Score model's predictive value in immunotherapy.

resultsWe identified four RNA modification patterns with diverse survival and TME features. One pattern consistent with the immune-inflamed tumor phenotype showed a better prognosis. Patients in WM_Score high group were related to adverse clinical outcomes, immune suppression, stromal activation, and enhanced cancer stemness, while WM_Score low group showed opposite results. The WM_Score was correlated with genetic, epigenetic alterations, and post-transcriptional modifications in GC. Low WM_Score was related to enhanced efficacy of anti-PD-1/L1 immunotherapy.

conclusionsWe revealed the cross-talk of four RNA modification types and their functions in GC, providing a scoring system for GC prognosis and personalized immunotherapy predictions.
