CNKSR2 expression is correlated with immune infiltrates in Cervical Cancer as a favorable prognostic factor.
Article in Journal of Cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Connector enhancer of kinase suppressor of Ras 2 (CNKSR2) is a scaffold protein that mediates mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. However, the molecular function of CNKSR2 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC) remains unknown. This study aimed to characterize the role of CNKSR2 in patients with CESC. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the expression of CNKSR2 in CESCs is relatively low compared with that in normal cells. We also explored the gene expression profile of high- and low-CNKSR2 expression in patients with cervical cancer. Furthermore, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that the expression of CNKSR2 was upregulated in synapse assembly, which was coordinately regulated using the cAMP signaling pathway and calcium signaling pathway. The correlation between CNKSR2 and cancer immune cell infiltration was investigated via single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). High CNKSR2 expression was associated with better overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Interestingly, high CNKSR2 expression was a good predictor of the survival outcome in cervical cancer patients. Additionally, CNKSR2 expression was strongly correlated with diverse immune cells in CESCs, including NK cells and T cells. These findings suggest that CNKSR2 is correlated with prognosis and immune infiltration, laying the foundation for future studies on the functional role of CNKSR2 in CESC.
