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 AND

objectiveS1PR1 (sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1) plays a critical role in key cancer-related processes such as cell migration, proliferation, and survival. While its functions are well-established in the cardiovascular and immune systems, its mechanism in cancer remains unclear. Our study aims to investigate the expression, mutations, post-translational modifications, and immune infiltration of S1PR1 across different cancers, and particularly focus on its potential as a therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker.

methodsWe utilized HPA, GTEx, TCGA and CPTAC bioinformation databases to evaluate the expression level of S1PR1 between normal and cancer tissue. Sequence conservation and phylogenetic analysis of S1PR1 are assessed by NCBI and Pfam database. Gene mutations, methylation, phosphorylation, and immune infiltration of S1PR1 were analyzed by cBioPortal, MethSuv, CPTAC and TIMER2.0 respectively.

resultsS1PR1 expression varied significantly among cancers, with decreased levels in bladder and breast cancers, and increased levels in renal cell carcinoma, thyroid cancer, and acute myeloid leukemia. Mutation analysis revealed frequent mutations in endometrial, lung, and ovarian cancers. Reduced methylation in lung adenocarcinoma correlated with improved survival. Elevated phosphorylation was observed in glioblastoma and renal carcinoma. Immune infiltration analysis showed significant correlations with CAFs and γδ T cells.

conclusionS1PR1 plays a critical role in cancer progression through its expression, mutations, and modifications. These findings suggest that S1PR1 could be served as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in cancer, but it need a further validation in clinical settings is warranted.
