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

The progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) from atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) to invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) involves a complex evolution of tumour cell clusters, the mechanisms of which remain largely unknown. By integrating single-cell datasets and using inferCNV, we identified and analysed tumour cell clusters to explore their heterogeneity and changes in abundance throughout LUAD progression. We applied gene set variation analysis (GSVA), pseudotime analysis, scMetabolism, and Cytotrace scores to study biological functions, metabolic profiles and stemness traits. A predictive model for prognosis, based on key cluster marker genes, was developed using CoxBoost and plsRcox (CPM), and validated across multiple cohorts for its prognostic prediction capabilities, tumour microenvironment characterization, mutation landscape and immunotherapy response. We identified nine distinct tumour cell clusters, with Cluster 6 indicating an early developmental stage, high stemness and proliferative potential. The abundance of Clusters 0 and 6 increased from AAH to IAC, correlating with prognosis. The CPM model effectively distinguished prognosis in immunotherapy cohorts and predicted genomic alterations, chemotherapy drug sensitivity, and immunotherapy responsiveness. Key gene S100A16 in the CPM model was validated as an oncogene, enhancing LUAD cell proliferation, invasion and migration. The CPM model emerges as a novel biomarker for predicting prognosis and immunotherapy response in LUAD patients, with S100A16 identified as a potential therapeutic target.
