Confirmation of the predictive function of cuproptosis-related gene FDX1 in clear cell renal carcinoma using qRT-PCR and western blotting.

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
backgroundCuproptosis is a novel cell death mechanism, and FDX1 is a key gene associated with cuproptosis. However, it is unclear whether FDX1 has prognostic and immunotherapeutic value for clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC).
methodsData on FDX1 expression in ccRCC were extracted from various databases and validated using qRT-PCR and western blotting. Moreover, the survival prognosis, clinical features, methylation, and biological functions of FDX1 were evaluated, and the tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE) score was used to explore the immunotherapy response to FDX1 in ccRCC.
resultsThe expression of FDX1 in ccRCC tissues was significantly lower than that in normal tissues, as validated by qRT-PCR and western blotting of patient samples (
conclusionsFDX1 could serve as a novel and accessible biomarker for predicting survival prognosis, tumor immune landscape, and immune responses in ccRCC.
