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

To address the substantial variability in immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy effectiveness, we developed an innovative R package called integrated Machine Learning and Genetic Algorithm-driven Multiomics analysis (iMLGAM), which establishes a comprehensive scoring system for predicting treatment outcomes through advanced multi-omics data integration. Our research demonstrates that iMLGAM scores exhibit superior predictive performance across independent cohorts, with lower scores correlating significantly with enhanced therapeutic responses and outperforming existing clinical biomarkers. Detailed analysis revealed that tumors with low iMLGAM scores display distinctive immune microenvironment characteristics, including increased immune cell infiltration and amplified antitumor immune responses. Critically, through clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats screening, we identified Centrosomal Protein 55 (
