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

backgroundColon cancer features strong heterogeneity and invasiveness, with high incidence and mortality rates. Recently, RNA modifications involving m6A, m5C, and m1A play a vital part in tumorigenesis and immune cell infiltration. However, integrated analysis among various RNA modifications in colon cancer has not been performed.

methodsRNA-seq profiling, clinical data and mutation data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus. We first explored the mutation status and expression levels of m6A/m5C/m1A regulators in colon cancer. Then, different m6A/m5C/m1A clusters and gene clusters were identified by consensus clustering analysis. We further constructed and validated a scoring system, which could be utilized to accurately assess the risk of individuals and guide personalized immunotherapy. Finally, m6A/m5C/m1A regulators were validated by immunohistochemical staining and RT-qPCR.

resultsIn our study, three m6A/m5C/m1A clusters and gene clusters were identified. Most importantly, we constructed a m6A/m5C/m1A scoring system to assess the clinical risk of the individuals. Besides, the prognostic value of the score was validated with three independent cohorts. Moreover, the level of the immunophenoscore of the low m6A/m5C/m1A score group increased significantly with CTLA-4/PD-1 immunotherapy. Finally, we validated that the mRNA and protein expression of VIRMA and DNMT3B increased in colon cancer tissues.

conclusionsWe constructed and validated a stable and powerful m6A/m5C/m1A score signature to assess the survival outcomes and immune infiltration characteristics of colon cancer patients, which further guides optimization of personalized treatment, making it valuable for clinical translation and implementation.
