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

It has been believed that immunosenescence plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis and cancer therapy. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of understanding regarding its role in determining clinical outcomes and therapy selection for gastric cancer patients, due to the lack of a feasible immunosenescence signature. Therefore, this research aims to develop a gene signature based on immunosenescence, which is used for stratification of gastric cancer. By integrative analysis of bulk transcriptome and single-cell data, we uncovered immunosenescence features in gastric cancer. Random forest algorithm was used to select hub genes and multivariate Cox algorithm was applied to construct a scoring system to evaluate the prognosis and the response to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The Cancer Genome Atlas of Stomach Adenocarcinoma (TCGA-STAD) cohort was implemented as the training cohort and two independent cohorts from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were used for validation. The model was further tested by our Fudan cohort. In this study, immunosenescence was identified as a hallmark of gastric cancer that is linked with transcriptomic features, genomic variations, and distinctive tumor microenvironment (TME). Four immunosenescence genes, including APOD, ADIPOR2, BRAF, and C3, were screened out to construct a gene signature for risk stratification. Higher risk scores indicated strong predictive power for poorer overall survival. Notably, the risk score signature could reliably predict response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy, with patients with high scores benefiting from immunotherapy and patients with low scores responding to chemotherapy. We report immunosenescence as a hitherto unheralded hallmark of gastric cancer that affects prognosis and treatment efficiency.
