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

The abnormal expression of tumor associated genes in pan-cancer is closely related to the clinicopathological features of distinct cancer types. Thus, identifying the role of specific genes in pan-cancer is needed for developing effective anti-cancer strategies. However, the function of CD244 in pan-cancer has not been fully understood. In this study, we explored the CD244 expression profile across 33 tumor types based on The Cancer Genome Atlas project, the Gene Expression Omnibus database, and other bioinformatics tools. We found down-regulated expression levels in seven tumor types and up-regulated expression levels in two tumor types. We subsequently explored the relationship between survival rate and CD244 expression, and found the positive relationship in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC). We further investigated the association between CD244 expression and tumor-infiltrating immune cells, and discovered their positive correlation in different tumors. We found that CD244 expression level was higher in normal samples than in UCEC samples, and was positively associated with CD8
