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

Bladder cancer is the fourth most common malignancy in men with poor prognosis. Programmed cell death (PCD) exerts crucial functions in many biological processes and immunotherapy responses of cancers. Cell death signature (CDS) is novel gene signature comprehensively considering the characteristics of 15 patterns of programmed cell death, which could affect the prognosis and immunotherapy benefits of cancer patients. Integrative machine learning procedure including 10 algorithms was conducted to construct a prognostic CDS using TCGA, GSE13507, GSE31684, GSE32984 and GSE48276 datasets. Immunophenoscore, intratumor heterogeneity (ITH), tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE) score and five immunotherapy cohorts were used to evaluate the predictive value of CDS in immunotherapy response. The prognostic CDS constructed by StepCox[backward] + Ridge algorithms was regarded as the optimal prognostic model. The CDS had a stable and powerful performance in predicting overall survival of bladder cancer patients with the AUCs at 3-year, 5-year, and 7-year ROC of 0.740, 0.763 and 0.820 in TCGA cohort. Moreover, CDS score acted as an independent risk factor for overall survival rate of bladder cancer patients. Low CDS score had a higher abundance of immuno-activated cells, higher PD1&CTLA4 immunophenoscore, higher TMB score, lower TIDE score, lower immune escape score, lower ITH score, lower cancer-related hallmarks score in bladder cancer. The CDS score was higher in non-responders in pan-cancer patients receiving immunotherapy. Our study constructed a novel prognostic CDS, which could serve as an indicator for predicting the prognosis in postoperative bladder cancer cases and immunotherapy benefits in pan-cancer. Low CDS score indicated a better prognosis and immunotherapy benefits.
