SCARB2 associates with tumor-infiltrating neutrophils and predicts poor prognosis in breast cancer.
Article in Breast cancer research and treatment, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThe tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in various aspects of breast cancer development and metastasis. Nevertheless, the expression, prognostic significance, and correlation with clinical features of SCARB2 in breast cancer, as well as the infiltrative characteristics of TME, remain largely unknown.
methodsWe analyzed the differential presentation of SCARB2 mRNA in breast cancer tissues and nontumorous breast tissues and prognosis by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases. Additionally, the Tumor Immunity Estimation Resource (TIMER) was taken to evaluate the correlation between SCARB2 mRNA presence and tumor-infiltrating immune cells and immune checkpoints in the TME in breast cancer. We performed multiple immunohistochemical staining to verify the SCARB2 protein expression in breast cancer tissues and its relationship to immune cells and checkpoints and clinicopathological features.
resultsWe identified elevated SCARB2 expression in breast cancer tissues, and high SCARB2 protein presentation was associated with advanced clinical stage and unfavorable prognosis. In addition, enhanced SCARB2 protein presence was closely correlated with up-regulation CD66b
conclusionSCARB2 holds promise for predicting the clinical outcome of breast cancer patients and could serve as a potential therapeutic target.
