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

objectiveLung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is associated with a low survival rate. Evidence suggests that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their receptors (BMPRs) play crucial roles in tumorigenesis and progression. However, a comprehensive analysis of their role in LUSC is lacking. Our study aimed to explore the relationship between BMPs/BMPRs expression levels and the tumorigenesis and prognosis of LUSC.

methodsThe "R/Limma" package was utilized to analyze the differential expression characteristics of BMPs/BMPRs in LUSC, using data from TCGA, GTEx, and GEO databases. Concurrently, the "survminer" packages were employed to investigate their prognostic value and correlation with clinical features in LUSC. The core gene associated with LUSC progression was further explored through weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA). LASSO analysis was conducted to construct a prognostic risk model for LUSC. Clinical specimens were examined by immunohistochemical analysis to confirm the diagnostic value in LUSC. Furthermore, based on the tumor immune estimation resource database and tumor-immune system interaction database, the role of the core gene in the tumor microenvironment of LUSC was explored.

resultsGDF10 had a significant correlation only with the pathological T stage of LUSC, and the protein expression level of GDF10 decreased with the tumorigenesis of LUSC. A prognostic risk model was constructed with GDF10 as the core gene and 5 hub genes (HRASLS, HIST1H2BH, FLRT3, CHEK2, and ALPL) for LUSC. GDF10 showed a significant positive correlation with immune cell infiltration and immune checkpoint expression.

conclusionGDF10 might serve as a diagnostic biomarker reflecting the tumorigenesis of LUSC and regulating the tumor immune microenvironment to guide more effective treatment for LUSC.
