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

Background: Disulfidptosis regulate various biological processes in cancer. However, there is limited research on the genes related to disulfidptosis in predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to develop a reliable disulfidptosis-related gene signature, which will characterize different HCC subtypes and predict their prognosis. Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-HCC dataset, comprising RNA sequencing data and clinical information, was obtained from the TCGA database. The crucial disulfidptosis-related genes were selected for bioinformatic analysis in HCC. HCC tumor classification was established through a consistent cluster analysis. The prognosis and immune-cell infiltration were investigated in association with a disulfidptosis-related HCC model. Results: In TCGA-HCC patients, a total of 3,621 prognostic genes and 30 key prognostic disulfidptosis-related genes were identified. Using key prognostic disulfidptosis-related genes, TCGA-HCC patients were categorized into low- and high-risk clusters. The upregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in high-risk cluster 1 (C1) could significantly impact cell cycle, DNA replication, and the p53 signaling pathway, whereas the pathways associated with the downregulated DEGs in high-risk C1 could significantly impact metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, the PPAR signaling pathway, and tyrosine metabolism. Furthermore, the immune activity of the high-risk C1 group was different to that of the low-risk cluster 2 (C2) group. The 13 disulfidptosis-related genes were finally screened using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, including Conclusions: The genes related to disulfidptosis are closely associated with tumor classification and immunity in patients with HCC. This is the first gene signature related to disulfidptosis demonstrated a strong predictive performance for the prognosis of HCC, which provide new perspectives for the diagnosis and treatment of HCC.
