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

Formyl peptide receptor 3 (FPR3) is known to have implications in the progression of various cancer types. Despite this, its biological significance within pan-cancer datasets has yet to be investigated. In this investigation, we scrutinized FPR3's expression profiles, genetic alterations, prognostic significance, immune-related characteristics, methylation status, tumor mutation burden (TMB), and microsatellite instability (MSI) across different types of cancer. We utilized TISCH's single-cell data to identify immune cells closely associated with FPR3. The predictive significance of FPR3 was evaluated independently in gliomas using data from TCGA and CGGA datasets, leading to the development of a prognostic nomogram. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis confirmed FPR3 expression in gliomas. Lastly, the CCK-8 and wound-healing assays were employed to assess the impact of FPR3 on the proliferation and metastasis of GBM cell lines. In numerous cancer types, heightened FPR3 expression correlated with adverse outcomes, immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoints, TMB, and MSI. In glioma, FPR3 emerged as a notable risk factor, with the prognostic model effectively forecasting patient results. The potential biological relevance of FPR3 was confirmed in glioma, and it was shown to have significant involvement in the processes of glioma growth, immune infiltration, and metastasis. Our results imply a potential association of FPR3 with tumor immunity, indicating its viability as a prognostic indicator in glioma.
