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

Glycolysis-related metabolic reprogramming is a central hallmark of human cancers, especially in renal cell carcinoma. However, the regulatory function of glycolytic signature in papillary RCC has not been well elucidated. In the present study, the glycolysis-immune predictive signature was constructed and validated using WGCNA, glycolysis-immune clustering analysis. PPI network of DEGs was constructed and visualized. Functional enrichments and patients' overall survival were analyzed. QRT-PCR experiments were performed to detect hub genes' expression and distribution, siRNA technology was used to silence targeted genes; cell proliferation and migration assays were applied to evaluate the biological function. Glucose concentration, lactate secretion, and ATP production were measured. Glycolysis-Immune Related Prognostic Index (GIRPI) was constructed and combined analyzed with single-cell RNA-seq. High-GIRPI signature predicted significantly poorer outcomes and relevant clinical features of pRCC patients. Moreover, GIRPI also participated in several pathways, which affected tumor immune microenvironment and provided potential therapeutic strategy. As a key glycolysis regulator, PFKFB3 could promote renal cancer cell proliferation and migration in vitro. Blocking of PFKFB3 by selective inhibitor PFK-015 or glycolytic inhibitor 2-DG significantly restrained renal cancer cells' neoplastic potential. PFK-015 and sunitinib could synergistically inhibit pRCC cells proliferation. Glycolysis-Immune Risk Signature is closely associated with pRCC prognosis, progression, immune infiltration, and therapeutic response. PFKFB3 may serve as a pivotal glycolysis regulator and mediates Sunitinib resistance in pRCC patients.
