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

In the case of hepatocellular carcinoma, there is a need to find novel immune biomarkers to predict cancer prognosis, which will help prolong patient survival. On the basis of these findings, we explored the role of the hub genes in hepatocellular carcinoma via computational analysis for future immunotherapy. To study this phenomenon, we selected three datasets downloaded from the GEO database (GSE25097, GSE76427 and GSE84402). The gene expression analysis platform (GEAP) online tool was used for the data analysis to identify the DEGs. Functional enrichment analysis was performed by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. The genes associated with these genes were identified via Cytoscape software. Immune cell infiltration and correlation analysis were used to screen the hub genes. The results revealed that the PTTG1, NCAPG, RACGAP1, PBK, ASPM, AURKA, CDCA5, KIF20A, MELK and PRC1 genes were correlated with immune targets, and these hub gene biomarkers will aid in future cancer prognosis and immunotherapy targeting in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
