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

Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide. Due to the important role of mitochondrial metabolism in cancer progression, a clinical prognostic model based on mitochondrial metabolism and clinical features was constructed in this study to predict the prognosis of ESCC. Firstly, the mitochondrial metabolism scores (MMs) were calculated based on 152 mitochondrial metabolism-related genes (MMRGs) by single sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Subsequently, univariate Cox regression and LASSO algorithm were used to identify prognosis-associated MMRG and risk-stratify patients. Functional enrichment, interaction network and immune-related analyses were performed to explore the features differences in patients at different risks. Finally, a prognostic nomogram incorporating clinical factors was constructed to assess the prognosis of ESCC. Our results found there were differences in clinical features between the MMs-high group and the MMs-low group in the TCGA-ESCC dataset (
