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

Background: CCND2 expression influences the growth and proliferation of cancer cells and plays a crucial role in immune response of tumor. However, few studies focused on the correlation between CCND2 and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in terms of prognosis and tumor immune infiltration. Methods: Original LUAD case data were screened from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Using R software, we analyzed differently expressed CCND2 between LUAD and adjacent normal tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis was conducted to determine the relationship between CCND2 expression and the overall survival of LUAD patients, and Cox regression analysis was performed to identify the independently prognostic risk factors for LUAD. Using TIMER (Tumor Immune Estimation Resource) and CIBERSORTx (Cell-type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of known RNA Transcripts) databases, the connection between CCND2 expression and LUAD immune infiltration was investigated. Results: The level of CCND2 was significantly lower in LUAD than in adjacent normal tissues [adjusted P<0.05 and log2 fold change (FC) =-1.33]. LUAD patients who expressed lower CCND2 had a shorter overall survival (P=0.046) and CCND2 was an independently prognostic risk factor for LUAD [hazard ratio (HR): 0.77, P=0.049]. In LUAD patients, CCND2 expression was positively associated with the levels of B cells (r=0.159, P=4.00e-04), CD8 Conclusions: CCND2 can be exploited as a novel prognostic biomarker involved in immune infiltration of LUAD, hence providing new preventative and therapeutic options for LUAD.
