Tumour mutation burden and infiltrating immune cell subtypes influenced the breast cancer prognosis.

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
Background: Most of its issues are still undecided on the relationship between tumour mutation burden (TMB) and immune-related genes in the breast cancer. This study explores their relationship based on gene mutation and transcription data in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and the effects of immune cells in TMB and tumour microenvironments on prognosis of breast cancer patients. Methods: Cases were divided into low-TMB and high-TMB subgroups. Differentially expressed immune-related genes were identified in different TMB subgroups, and patient prognosis was predicted by gene function enrichment analysis, invasive immune cells and different clinical pathological features were compared among different TMB subgroups. Results: A total of 986 mutation data from breast cancer patients were obtained. Compared with low-TMB group, the survival period of high-TMB group was relatively longer. A total of 337 differential expression genes were identified in this study. Of these genes, seven differentially expressed immune-related genes were associated with prognosis. In the high-TMB group, activated CD4+ memory T cells and other cells had high expression, the expression ratio of memory B cells and other cells in low-TMB group was high. Conclusions: TMB-related immunological infiltration characteristics showed meaningful value for prognosis prediction for breast cancer patients. Differentially expressed immune-related genes in TMB subgroups provide important information on the survival prediction.
