Comprehensive pan-cancer analysis indicates key gene of p53-independent apoptosis is a novel biomarker for clinical application and chemotherapy in colorectal cancer.

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
Background: Schlafen11 (SLFN11) is a key gene in p53-independent apoptosis through ribosome stalling; however, systematic research has been conducted on its role in the tumor immune microenvironment, clinical application, and immunotherapy response across pan-cancer. Method: Public data were downloaded and multi-omics approaches were used to investigate the relationship between the expression level of SLFN11 and spatial position, biological function, immune landscape, and clinical application values. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay and quantitative real-time PCR were used to validate the expression level of SLFN11 and drug sensitivity in colorectal cancer samples. Result: Our study revealed that SLFN11 was downregulated in most cancers and correlated with DNA repair, the P53 pathway and immune response in tumor development progress by multi-omics analysis. Dysregulated SLFN11 is accompanied by several immune cell infiltrations and immune-related regulators, which can be a promising screening and prognostic biomarker and chemotherapy predictive target for clinical application. Conclusion: The expression level of SLFN11 has a substantial promise as a valuable biomarker for diagnosis and a predictive indicator for assessing the effectiveness of chemotherapy and immunotherapy in human cancers, which deserves further additional basic experiments and clinical trials to prove.
