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: Multiple studies have suggested that lncRNAs and pyroptosis play important roles in ovarian cancer (OC). However, the function of pyroptosis-related lncRNAs (PRLs) in OC is not fully understood. Methods: Clinical information and RNA-seq data of OC patients (n = 379) were collected from TCGA database. Pearson correlation analysis and univariate Cox analysis were performed to identify prognostic PRLs, respectively. LASSO-COX regression was utilized to construct a prognostic PRLs signature. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve analyses and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) were used to evaluate the prognostic prediction of the signature. The association between risk score and tumor microenvironment infiltration, immunotherapy response and chemotherapy sensitivity were also analyzed. In addition, the function of TYMSOS on OC and pyroptosis was experimentally confirmed in cell lines. Results: Firstly, 32 prognostic PRLs were identified, and a novel prognostic PRLs signature was constructed and validated. Surprisingly, the prognostic PRLs signature could solidly predict the clinical outcome of patients with OC and patients with high-risk score shown a short overall survival. GSEA results suggested that the RPLs were mainly enriched in the inflammatory response pathway, p53 pathway, TGF-β signaling and TNFα signaling. Besides, our results demonstrated that the risk score was significantly associated with patients with immune infiltration, immunotherapy response and the sensitivity of veliparib and metformin. Furthermore, the oncogene effect of TYMSOS on OC by inhibiting pyroptosis was verified by experiments. Conclusion: This study found that the prognostic PRLs signature may serve as an efficient biomarker in predicting the prognosis, tumor microenvironment infiltration, and sensitivity of chemotherapeutic agents. TYMSOS is a potential biomarker in OC, and it might promote tumor progression by inhibiting pyroptosis.
