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

Purpose: One of the most catastrophic malignant tumors is triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). It is characterized by rapid progression in the clinic. CircRNAs are abnormally expressed in almost all cancers and play important roles in tumor immune evasion. Nevertheless, the biological roles of the circular fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 RNA (circFGFR4) in TNBC remain unclear. Methods: The expression of circFGFR4 in TNBC tissues and paired nontumor tissues was detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The role of circFGFR4 in TNBC immune evasion was estimated by analyzing clinical tissues. In vivo circRNA precipitation, RNA immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter assays were performed to explore interaction between circFGFR4 and miR-185-5p. Results: Our results indicated that circFGFR4 was significantly overexpressed in TNBC tissues. Upregulated circFGFR4 expression was correlated with decreased CD8 Conclusion: Ultimately, our results indicated that circFGFR4 plays an important role in immune evasion and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy resistance via regulates miR-185-5p/CXCR4 axis in TNBC, thus suggesting that circFGFR4 has significant potential as a biomarker for predicting sensitivity to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy and as an immunotherapeutic target for TNBC.
