Prognostic Prediction and Immune Microenvironment Characterization in Uveal Melanoma: A Novel Mitochondrial Metabolism-Related Gene Signature.
Article in ACS omega, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Uveal Melanoma (UM), a highly aggressive and metastatic intraocular cancer with a strong propensity for liver metastasis, presents limited therapeutic alternatives and unfavorable survival outcomes. Despite its low incidence, the underlying mechanisms of UM pathogenesis and the precise role of mitochondrial metabolism in UM remain inadequately understood. Utilizing Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to assess prognostic relevance, and consensus clustering was employed for molecular subtyping. A risk signature was constructed using Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) Cox regression. We further conducted comparative analyses on clinicopathological characteristics, somatic mutation profiles, drug sensitivity, gene expression patterns, and tumor microenvironment features across different molecular subtypes. Moreover, a nomogram was developed and evaluated. Among 1234 mitochondria metabolism-related genes (MMRGs), 343 were identified as significantly associated with the prognosis of UM. These prognosis-associated MMRGs facilitated the classification of UM into two distinct molecular subtypes, which displayed notable differences in prognosis and pathological staging. Furthermore, an index termed the MMRGs-derived index (MMI) was derived from eight MMRGs, serving as a quantitative measure for poor prognosis risk in UM. MMI demonstrated significant associations with clinicopathological characteristics, somatic mutations, drug responsiveness, and the tumor microenvironment, where higher MMI levels corresponded to worse prognosis, advanced pathological stages, and increased immune cell infiltration. The nomogram built upon MMI provided a potential tool for clinical prognosis assessment in UM patients. This study demonstrated the potential value of MMRGs in predicting prognosis and molecular stratification within UM; however, additional clinical and basic research is warranted to validate their applicability and elucidate the related mechanisms.
