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

Background: Identifying predictive markers for breast cancer (BC) prognosis and immunotherapeutic responses remains challenging. Recent findings indicate that N Methods: We utilized bulk RNA-sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas Breast Cancer Cohort and the GSE42568 and GSE146558 datasets to identify BC-specific m7G-modification regulators and associated genes. We used multiple m7G databases and RNA interference to validate the relationships between BC-specific m7G-modification regulators (METTL1 and WDR4) and related genes. Single-cell RNA-sequencing data from GSE176078 confirmed the association between m7G modifications and TME cells. We constructed an m7G-TME classifier, validated the results using an independent BC cohort (GSE20685; Results: Immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR results indicated that METTL1 and WDR4 overexpression in BC correlated with poor patient prognosis. Moreover, single-cell analysis revealed relationships between m7G modification and TME cells, indicating their potential as indicators of BC prognosis and treatment responses. The m7G-TME classifier enabled patient subgrouping and revealed significantly better survival and treatment responses in the m7G Conclusions: The m7G-TME classifier offers a promising tool for predicting prognosis and immunotherapeutic responses in BC, which could support personalized therapeutic strategies.
