A new TGF-β risk score predicts clinical and immune landscape in colorectal cancer patients.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Aberrant TGF-β signaling pathway can lead to invasive phenotype of colorectal cancer (CRC), resulting in poor prognosis. It is pivotal to develop an effective prognostic factor on the basis of TGF-β-related genes to accurately identify risk of CRC patients. Methods: We performed differential analysis of TGF-β-related genes in CRC patients from databases and previous literature to obtain TGF-β-related differentially expressed genes (TRDEGs). LASSO-Cox regression was utilized to build a CRC prognostic feature model based on TRDEGs. The model was validated using two GEO validation sets. Wilcoxon rank-sum test was utilized to test correlation of model with clinical factors. ESTIMATE algorithm and ssGSEA and tumor mutation burden (TMB) analysis were used to analyze immune landscape and mutation burden of high-risk (HR) and low-risk (LR) groups. CellMiner database was utilized to identify therapeutic drugs with high sensitivity to the feature genes. Results: We established a six-gene risk prognostic model with good predictive accuracy, which independently predicted CRC patients' prognoses. The HR group was more likely to experience immunotherapy benefits due to higher immune infiltration and TMB. The feature gene TGFB2 could inhibit the efficacy of drugs such as XAV-939, Staurosporine, and Dasatinib, but promote the efficacy of drugs such as CUDC-305 and by-product of CUDC-305. Similarly, RBL1 could inhibit the drug action of Fluphenazine and Imiquimod but promote that of Irofulven. Conclusion: A CRC risk prognostic signature was developed on basis of TGF-β-related genes, which provides a reference for risk and further therapeutic selection of CRC patients.
