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: The tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) plays a pivotal role in determining ovarian cancer (OC) prognosis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators of immune response and tumor progression in OC. Among these, tumor-infiltrating B cells represent an emerging target in immune response pathways. However, the specific involvement of B cell-related lncRNAs (BCRLs) in OC remains unclarified. Methods: Leveraging single-cell and bulk RNA-sequencing data, correlation analysis identified BCRLs in ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV) from the TCGA database. Subsequently, BCRLIs were filtered through COX survival analysis and the LASSO algorithm, leading to the development of a B cell-related lncRNA scoring system (BCRLss). The predictive accuracy of BCRLss for prognosis in TCGA-OV was assessed and externally validated in an independent cohort. Functional enrichment analyses were conducted to elucidate biological pathways associated with risk subgroups. Additionally, the relationship between BCRLss and TIME was investigated through multiple algorithms and consensus clustering, uncovering potential immune response targets. Drug sensitivity analyses further identified potential therapeutic options tailored to risk subgroups. The highest risk score lncRNA was selected for Results: The BCRLss was constructed using six BCRLIs. Survival analysis revealed an improved prognosis in the low-risk group, with results corroborated by external validation in the ICGC-OV cohort. ROC analysis and nomogram construction confirmed the strong prognostic accuracy of BCRLss. Enrichment analysis highlighted associations between risk subgroups and tumor immune pathways, with the low-risk group demonstrating a more robust immune response and elevated expression of immune checkpoint-related genes. Drug sensitivity tests revealed notable differences across risk subgroups. Conclusions: In conclusion, BCRLss provides a reliable prognostic tool for predicting clinical outcomes and the immune landscape of patients with OC, offering valuable guidance for immunotherapy target selection and personalized treatment strategies.
