Comprehensive analysis of metabolism-related gene biomarkers reveals their impact on the diagnosis and prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer.
Article in BMC cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer characterized by poor prognosis and limited treatment options, which underscores the urgency of the discovery of new biomarkers. Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer and is expected to serve as a strong predictive biomarker for breast cancer.
methodsWe integrated RNA expression data and clinical information from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases to explore the associations between metabolism-related gene expression and TNBC prognosis. Our comprehensive approach included differential expression analysis, enrichment analysis, Cox regression analysis, machine learning, and in vitro experimental validation.
resultsWe identified five pivotal genes-SDS, RDH12, IDO1, GLDC, and ALOX12B-that were significantly correlated with the prognosis of TNBC patients. A prognostic model incorporating these genes was developed and validated in an independent patient cohort. The model demonstrated predictive validity, as TNBC patients classified into the high-risk group exhibited significantly poorer prognoses. Additionally, utilizing the risk model, we evaluated the mutational landscape, immune infiltration, immunotherapy response, and drug sensitivity in TNBC, providing insights into potential therapeutic strategies.
conclusionsThis study established a robust prognostic model capable of accurately predicting clinical outcomes and metastasis, which could aid in personalized clinical decision-making.
