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: Mitochondrial genes are involved in the tumor metabolism of ovarian cancer (OC), affecting immune cell infiltration and treatment response. We aimed to utilize mitochondrial genes to predict OC prognosis and immunotherapy response. Methods: The prognosis data, immunotherapy efficacy and next generation sequencing data of OC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Mitochondrial genes were sourced from the MitoCarta3.0 database. Seventy percent of the patients were randomly selected as the discovery cohort for model construction, while the remaining 30% constituted the validation cohort for model assessment. Using the expression of mitochondrial genes as the predictor variable and based on the neural network algorithm, the overall survival (OS) time and immunotherapy efficacy (complete or partial response) of the included patients were predicted. Results: There were 375 OC patients included to construct the prognostic model, and 26 patients were included to construct the immune efficacy model. The average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the prognostic model was: 0.7268 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.7258-0.7278] in the discovery cohort and 0.6475 (95% CI: 0.6466-0.6484) in the validation cohort. The average AUC of the immunotherapy efficacy model was: 0.9444 (95% CI: 0.8333-1.0000) in the discovery cohort and 0.9167 (95% CI: 0.6667-1.0000) in the validation cohort. Conclusions: The application of mitochondrial genes and neural networks shows potential in predicting the prognosis and immunotherapy response in OC patients. And this approach could provide valuable insights for personalized treatment strategies.
