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

purposeIndividualized medicine has become increasingly important in bladder cancer treatment, whereas useful biomarkers for prognostic prediction are still lacking. The current study, therefore, constructed a novel risk model based on pyroptosis- and immune-related long noncoding RNAs (Pyro-Imm lncRNAs) to evaluate the potential prognosis of bladder cancer.

methodsCorresponding data of bladder cancer patients were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The univariate Cox regression analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, and multivariate Cox regression analysis were employed to establish a predictive signature, which was evaluated by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis and Kaplan-Meier analysis. Furthermore, the immune infiltration, immune checkpoints, and responses to chemotherapeutic drugs were analyzed with this model.

resultsThree Pyro-Imm lncRNAs (MAFG-DT, AC024060.1, AC116914.2) were finally identified. Patients in the low-risk group demonstrated a significant survival advantage. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) at 1, 3, and 5 years was 0.694, 0.709, and 0.736 respectively in the entire cohort. KEGG and GO analyses showed that the Wnt pathway plays a crucial role in the high-risk group. The risk score was significantly related to the degree of infiltration of different immune cells, the expression of multiple immune checkpoint genes, and the sensitivity of various chemotherapeutic drugs.

conclusionThis novel signature provides a theoretical basis for cancer immunology and chemotherapy, which might help develop individualized therapy.
