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

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents approximately 85 % of all renal malignant tumors, with kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) being the most typical subtype. The tripartite motif (TRIM) family is involved in cancer initiation, progression, and therapy resistance. While TRIM36 has exhibited anti-tumor effects in various cancers, its relationship with KIRC remains unclear. In our research, we studied the relationship between TRIM36 and KIRC. Through a combination of bioinformatic analyses and validation experiments, we noted a rise in TRIM36 expression in KIRC, and the upregulation of TRIM36 expression is associated with a poorer prognosis in KIRC. Also, our findings from wound healing assays and transwell migration assays showed that TRIM36 promotes the proliferation and migration of KIRC cells. To understand the underlying mechanisms, we screened relevant genes and conducted enrichment analysis. We identified that TRIM36 may interact with 5 hub genes and involve in the cell cycle and cell division processes in KIRC. Additionally, through immune infiltration analysis, we found that TRIM36 may interact with 6 tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and 6 immune inhibitors. In summary, our research identifies TRIM36 as a promising biomarker and comprehensively explores its promoting effect on the proliferation of KIRC.
