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: Ferroptosis is involved in many malignant tumors and has been implicated in important mechanisms of colorectal cancer (CRC) suppression. However, the prognostic and predictive values of the ferroptosis activation pattern in CRC patients have not been noted. Here, we aimed to construct and validate a prediction model based on ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) for CRC patients and investigated the expression pattern and biological function of the most significantly altered gene. Methods: A total of 112 FRGs were obtained from the FerrDb website, and the clinical characteristics of 545 CRC patients and their global gene expression profiles were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Survival-related FRGs were identified by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. Finally, the expression pattern and biological function of NOS2, the most implicated gene was explored Results: The prediction model was established based on 8 FRGs. Patients in the high- or low-risk group were stratified based on the median risk value calculated by our model, and patients in the high-risk group experienced poor overall survival ( Conclusion: Our study revealed that FRGs have potential prognostic value in CRC patients and that NOS2 suppresses tumor progression, providing a novel therapeutic target for CRC treatment based on ferroptosis.
