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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to identify a prognostic signature based on stemness-related differentially expressed lncRNAs in colorectal cancer (CRC) and to investigate their potential as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic targets.

methodsStemness-related genes were collected from the TCGA cohort, and 13 differently expressed stemness-related lncRNAs were identified as prognostic factors for CRC using Kaplan-Meier analysis. A risk model was constructed based on the calculated risk score as a novel independent prognostic factor for CRC patients. The study also investigated the association between the risk model and immune checkpoints and m6A differentiation gene expression. qRT-PCR analysis was performed to validate the expression of differentially expressed stemness-related lncRNAs in CRC cell lines compared to normal colon mucosal cell line.

resultsThe low-risk lncRNAs were associated with higher survival in CRC patients (Kaplan-Meier analysis, P < 0.001). The risk model was a significant independent prognostic factor for CRC patients. Type I INF response was statistically significant between low- and high-risk groups. CD44, CD70, PVR, TNFSF4, BTNL2, CD40, these immune checkpoints were expressed differently between two risk groups. There was a significant difference between m6A differentiation gene expression such as METTL3, METTL14, WTAP, RBM15, ZC3H13, YTHDC2, YTHDF2, ALKBH5. qRT-PCR analysis validated that there were five up-regulated and eight down-regulated differently expressed stemness-related lncRNAs in CRC cell lines compared to the normal colon mucosal cell line.

conclusionThis study suggests that the 13 CRC stemness-related lncRNA signature could become a promising and reliable prognostic factor for colorectal cancer. The risk model based on the calculated risk score may have implications for personalized medicine and targeted therapies for CRC patients. The study also suggests that immune checkpoints and m6A differentiation genes may play important roles in the development and progression of CRC.
