An Integrated Framework to Identify Prognostic Biomarkers and Novel Therapeutic Targets in Hepatocellular Carcinoma-Based Disabilities.
Article in Biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors globally, significantly affecting liver functions, thus necessitating the identification of biomarkers and effective therapeutics to improve HCC-based disabilities. This study aimed to identify prognostic biomarkers, signaling cascades, and candidate drugs for the treatment of HCC through integrated bioinformatics approaches such as functional enrichment analysis, survival analysis, molecular docking, and simulation. Differential expression and functional enrichment analyses revealed 176 common differentially expressed genes from two microarray datasets, GSE29721 and GSE49515, significantly involved in HCC development and progression. Topological analyses revealed 12 hub genes exhibiting elevated expression in patients with higher tumor stages and grades. Survival analyses indicated that 11 hub genes (CCNB1, AURKA, RACGAP1, CEP55, SMC4, RRM2, PRC1, CKAP2, SMC2, UHRF1, and FANCI) and three transcription factors (E2F1, CREB1, and NFYA) are strongly linked to poor patient survival. Finally, molecular docking and simulation identified seven candidate drugs with stable complexes to their target proteins: tozasertib (-9.8 kcal/mol), tamatinib (-9.6 kcal/mol), ilorasertib (-9.5 kcal/mol), hesperidin (-9.5 kcal/mol), PF-562271 (-9.3 kcal/mol), coumestrol (-8.4 kcal/mol), and clofarabine (-7.7 kcal/mol). These findings suggest that the identified hub genes and TFs could serve as valuable prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HCC-based disabilities.
