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: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a highly aggressive tumor with one of the highest morbidity and mortality rates in the world. Nucleotide metabolic processes are critical for cancer development, progression, and alteration of the tumor microenvironment. However, the effect of nucleotide metabolism on LUAD remains to be thoroughly investigated. Methods: Transcriptomic and clinical data of LUAD were downloaded and organized from TCGA and GEO databases. Genes related to nucleotide metabolism were downloaded from the Msigdb database. Genes associated with LUAD prognosis were identified using univariate COX analysis, and a prognostic risk model was constructed using the machine learning combination of Lasso + Stepcox. The model's predictive validity was evaluated using KM survival and timeROC curves. Based on the prognostic model, LUAD patients were classified into different nucleotide metabolism subtypes, and the differences between patients of different subtypes were explored in terms of genomic mutations, functional enrichment, tumor immune characteristics, and immunotherapy responses. Finally, the key gene SNRPA was screened, and a series of Result: LUAD patients could be accurately categorized into subtypes based on the nucleotide metabolism-related prognostic risk score (NMBRS). There were significant differences in prognosis between patients of different subtypes, and the NMBRS showed high accuracy in predicting the prognosis of LUAD patients. In addition, patients of different subtypes showed significant differences in genomic mutation and functional enrichment and exhibited different anti-tumor immune profiles. Importantly, NMBRS can be used to predict the responsiveness of LUAD patients to immunotherapy. The results of Conclusion: This study comprehensively reveals the prognostic value and clinical application of nucleotide metabolism in LUAD. A prognostic signature constructed based on genes related to nucleotide metabolism accurately predicted the prognosis of LUAD patients, and this signature can be used as a guide for LUAD immunotherapy.
