The MQRG score: a novel prognostic tool for adrenocortical carcinoma patients based on mitochondrial quality.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objectives: Adrenal tumors are common, but adrenocortical carcinomas (ACCs) are a rare and challenging form of cancer to diagnose and manage.This study aimed to explore the critical role of mitochondrial quality in maintaining cellular function and the implications of the abnormal expression of mitochondrial metabolism-related proteins observed in ACC patients. We focused on identifying the connection between mitochondrial quality and the development of ACC at molecular and genomic levels. Methods: We compared mitochondrial quality-related genes (MQRGs) across ACC subtypes using overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) as evaluation indicators. Furthermore, a novel MQRG score was developed to predict clinical prognosis and guide immunotherapy responses accurately. Results: The majority of MQRGs were upregulated in the ACC samples, correlating to poor prognosis. The MQRG score was confirmed as an independent prognostic factor for ACC, with the high-risk MQRG score group showing a significantly shorter overall survival period. Conclusions: Multilayer alterations in MQRGs are associated with patient prognosis and immune cell infiltration characteristics. This comprehensive analysis of MQRGs can contribute to a deeper understanding of potential differences in ACC patients' tumor microenvironment. This can influence clinical decision-making and advanced prognosis prediction, thereby offering new insights into personalized treatments in ACC.
