Mesothelioma survival prediction based on a six-gene transcriptomic signature.
Article in iScience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mesothelioma is a lethal cancer. Despite promising outcomes associated with immunotherapy, durable responses remain restricted to a minority of patients, highlighting the need for improved strategies that better predict outcome. Here, we described the development of a mesothelioma-specific gene signature that accurately predicts survival. Comprehensive gene expression analysis of asbestos exposed MexTAg Collaborative Cross mouse tumors revealed distinct tumor clusters characterized by epithelial mesenchymal transition/extracellular matrix, or immune infiltrate related gene expression profiles. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) identified 20 hub genes that drove differential gene expression. Human homologues of these 20 hub genes were refined through univariate Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analyses to identify a six-gene mesothelioma-specific prognostic signature that accurately predicted patient survival across four independent human mesothelioma datasets. Furthermore, this six-gene signature demonstrated the potential to predict treatment response, thus advancing the management of this challenging malignancy.
