The NT5DC family: expression profile and prognostic value in pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Article in Journal of Cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates. The NT5DC family is an evolutionarily-conserved family of 5'-nucleosidases that catalyze the intracellular hydrolysis of nucleotides. Although the NT5DC family has been linked to the initiation and growth of several cancers, its function in PAAD remains unclear. A series of bioinformatic analyses was used to ascertain the expression, prognosis, gene changes, functional enrichment, and immune regulatory functions of the NT5DC family in PAAD. NT5C2 and NT5DC1/2 mRNA and protein levels are increased in PAAD. Furthermore, the high mRNA expressions of NT5C2, NT5DC2, and NT5DC4 indicate a poor prognosis in patients with PAAD. The enrichment of biological processes and gene expression in the NT5DC family in PAAD were investigated using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology analyses. Further investigations into immune infiltration revealed a close relationship between NT5DC gene expression and immune cell infiltration. These findings provide new insights into the biological function and prognostic value of the NT5DC gene family in PAAD.
