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: CD276 is an immune checkpoint, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting CD276 have been tested against various cancers. However, the precise role of CD276 in mesothelioma subtypes is unknown. This study aimed to reveal the prognostic significance of CD276 in various cancers and explore CD276 as a target for ICIs in different mesothelioma subtypes. Methods: We evaluated data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database retrospectively. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to assess Results: Upregulated Conclusions: CD276 is an independent prognostic biomarker in patients with epithelioid mesothelioma. It is associated with the glycolytic pathway and may contribute to ATP generation in epithelioid mesothelioma. CD276 inhibitors might contribute to better prognosis in patients with epithelioid mesothelioma.
