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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) presents significant management challenges. MPT-driven necrosis (MPTDN) plays a significant role in various conditions, but its connection with GC is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the predictive significance of MPTDN-related genes (MPTDNRGs) in GC and their effect on the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME).

methodsRNA sequencing data for GC were sourced from TCGA and GEO databases. The mutation profiles and MPTDNRG expression between tumor and normal samples were assessed. Prognostic mRNAs were identified using univariate Cox regression and LASSO regression. GC patients were classified into high- and low-risk groups according to risk scores, followed by survival analysis and evaluation of correlations between MPTDN score and clinicopathological features, functional pathway, TIME, and responses to immunotherapy.

resultsMPTDNRGs exhibited a 64% mutation rate in GC, with 22 showing significant expression differences. Univariate Cox and LASSO regression identified 15 independently prognostic MPTDNRGs. The prognostic risk model stratified patients into two groups, revealing significant differences in overall and disease-free survival. A nomogram incorporating the signature and clinical characteristics showed strong specificity and sensitivity in predicting prognosis. The MPTDN score was significantly associated with clinical characteristics, functional pathways, and TIME. scRNA-seq analysis indicated higher MPTDN-signature expression in CD8 + T cells, malignant cells, and myofibroblasts. TIDE analysis suggested high-risk patients have reduced responses to immunotherapy, while low-risk patients could benefit more. Importantly, validation using urothelial carcinoma data confirmed a better prognosis for low-risk patients with immunotherapy.

conclusionThis study highlights the importance of MPTDN-related signatures in predicting GC prognosis and guiding therapeutic decisions.
