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

backgroundLong non-coding RNA (lncRNA) plays a vital role in tumor proliferation, migration, and treatment. Since it is challenging to standardize the gene expression levels detected by different platforms, the signatures composed of many immune-related single lncRNAs are still inaccurate. Utilizing a gene pair formed of two immune-related lncRNAs and strategically assigning values can effectively meet the demand for a higher-accuracy dual biomarker combination.

methodsCo-expression and differential expression analyses were performed on immune genes and lncRNAs data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and the ImmPort database to obtain differentially expressed immune-related lncRNAs for pairwise pairing. The prognostic-related differentially expressed immune-related lncRNAs (PR-DE-irlncRNAs) pairs were then identified by univariate Cox regression and used for lasso regression to construct a prognostic model. Various methods were used to validate the predictive prognostic performance of the model. Additionally, we explored the potential guiding value of the model in immunotherapy and chemotherapy and constructed a nomogram suitable for efficient prognosis prediction. Mechanistic exploration of anti-tumor immunity and mutational perspectives are also included. We also analyzed the correlation between the model and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)-related, N6-methyadenosine (m6A)-related, and multidrug resistance genes.

resultsWe used a total of 20 pairs of PR-DE-irlncRNAs to create a prognosis model. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction experiments further verified the abnormal expression of 11 lncRNAs in HNSCC cells. Various methods have confirmed the excellent performance of the model in predicting patient prognosis. We reasoned that lncRNAs/TP53 mutation might play a positive/negative anti-tumor role through the immune system by multi-perspective analyses. Finally, it was found that the prognostic model was closely related to immunotherapy and chemotherapy as well as the expression of ICIs/m6A/multidrug resistance-related genes.

conclusionThe prognostic model performs excellently in predicting the prognosis of patients and provides the potential value of practical guidance for treatment.
