Development and validation of an Immune-related Gene-based model for predicting prognosis and immunotherapy outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Predicting disease prognosis and the efficacy of immunotherapy presents a significant challenge in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). By analyzing transcriptome sequencing data from 69 patients and identifying differentially expressed immune genes, a prognostic index named the immune-related gene prognostic index (IRGPI) was established by Lasso-Cox regression. The IRGPI, which consists of six key genes, was found to be a significant predictor of poor prognosis in patients with high IRGPI scores. The model's predictive accuracy was confirmed via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.85, 0.779, and 0.857 for 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival predictions, respectively. Additionally, patients with high IRGPI scores had increased levels of Treg cells and neutrophils, advanced tumor staging, microvascular invasion grading, and immune checkpoint expression. The IRGPI was also effective in predicting the efficacy of immunotherapy in the IMvigor210 dataset, demonstrating its potential as a valuable tool for assessing patient prognosis and guiding immunotherapy strategies in HCC.
