RSAD2, a pyroptosis-related gene, predicts the prognosis and immunotherapy response for colorectal cancer.

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.
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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most prevalent malignant tumors, known for its high heterogeneity. Although many treatments and medications are available, the long-term survival rate of CRC patients is far from satisfactory. Pyroptosis is closely related to tumor progression. This study aimed to identify pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) and candidate biomarkers to predict the prognosis of CRC patients. Used bioinformatics, we identified PRGs and subsequently screened 288 co-expression genes between pyroptosis-related modules and differentially expressed genes in CRC. Among these hub genes, we selected the top 24 for further analysis and found that Radical S-Adenosyl Methionine Domain Containing 2 (RSAD2) was a novel biomarker associated with the progression of CRC. We developed a risk model for RSAD2, which proved to be an independent prognostic indicator. The receiver operator characteristic analysis showed that the model had an acceptable prognostic value for patients with CRC. In addition, RSAD2 also affects the tumor immune microenvironment and prognosis of CRC. We further validated RSAD2 expression in CRC patients using RT-qPCR and the role of RSAD2 in pyroptosis. Taken together, this study comprehensively assessed the expression and prognostic value of RSAD2 in patients with CRC. These findings may offer a new direction for early CRC screening and development of future immunotherapy strategies.
