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

NCAPG2 has been reported to be associated with tumorigenesis in various types of cancer. However, data on the pathological mechanisms of NCAPG2 in pan-cancers remain lacking. Therefore, the study aimed to comprehensively elucidate the immune characteristics and prognostic of NCAPG2 in tumor microenvironments (TMEs). NCAPG2 was overexpressed in many tumor types, and this overexpression is related to poor clinical stages and prognosis. Furthermore, elevated NCAPG2 expression was strongly associated with TMEs. Moreover, gene set enrichment analysis was performed to investigate the pathways associated with NCAPG2, revealing its involvement in several immune-related pathways. Finally, we predicted the immunotherapeutic value and sensitivity to drugs based on NCAPG2 expression. Our study revealed that NCAPG2 could be utilized as an immune-related biomarker for both diagnosing and predicting the prognosis of multiple cancer types. Therefore, our findings suggest that targeting NCAPG2 in TMEs could be a promising therapeutic strategy.
