Protocadherin-1 serves as a prognostic biomarker and promotes pancreatic cancer progression by suppressing CD8
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Previous studies have shown that Protocadherins (PCDHs) enhance tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis; yet their role in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression and the tumor immune microenvironment remains unclear. This study aims to elucidate the role of PCDH1 in different cancer types, with a particular focus on its impact on immune suppression in PC. Utilizing data from TCGA, GTEx, and Gent2 databases, we assessed the expression of PCDH1 across various cancer types. The prognostic value of PCDH1 was demonstrated through Cox regression, Kaplan-Meier analysis, and ROC curve, while its relationship with gene mutations, tumor mutational burden (TMB), immune cell infiltration, and other clinical factors was investigated using Spearman correlation. Furthermore, the effect of PCDH1 on PC malignancy was experimentally validated by a series of in vitro and in vivo assays. Our results show a significant upregulation of PCDH1 in various tumor types, which is associated with poor prognosis, suggesting its potential application as an independent prognostic biomarker. Notably, in PC, PCDH1 exhibited significant associations with gene mutations, TMB, and immune cell infiltration. Clinical validations revealed a correlation between high PCDH1 expression and poor prognosis, coupled with a low level of CD8
