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

Cancer is a complex disease with diverse molecular mechanisms that affect patient prognosis. Network-based approaches are effective in revealing a holistic picture of cancer prognosis and gene interactions. However, a comprehensive landscape of coexpression networks and prognostic gene modules across multiple cancer types remains elusive. In this study, we performed a systematic analysis of coexpression networks in 32 cancer types. Our analysis identified 4749 prognostic modules that play a vital role in regulating cancer progression. Integrative epigenomic analyses revealed that these modules were regulated by interactions between gene expression and methylation. Coregulated genes of network modules were enriched in chromosome cytobands and preferentially localized in open chromatin regions. The preserved network modules formed 330 module clusters that resided in chromosome hot spots. The cancer-type-specific prognostic modules participated in unique essential biological processes in different cancer types. Overall, our study provides rich resources of prevalent gene networks and underlying multiscale regulatory mechanisms driving cancer prognosis, which lay a foundation for biomarker discovery and therapeutic target development.
