Exploring the potential value of SRC in pan cancer based on bioinformatics methods.

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
backgroundTyrosine-Protein Kinase Src (SRC), a non-receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the Src gene, plays a crucial role in cell growth, division, migration, and survival signaling pathways. Dysregulation of SRC expression and activity is associated with advanced stages of several human cancers and poor prognosis. However, the prognostic value of SRC across multiple cancers and its involvement in immune response remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between SRC expression levels and cancer patient prognosis, as well as its potential impact on the immune microenvironment.
methodsIn this study, we utilized the Sangerbox database to investigate the differential expression of SRC in various types of cancer tumors and adjacent normal tissues. Survival outcomes of SRC expression levels in pan cancer were analyzed by Cox risk ratio and Kaplan Meier analysis. We further explored the relationship between SRC expression and immune regulatory genes, tumor mutation load, microsatellite instability, and the immune microenvironment of pan cancer using the Sangerbox database.
resultsCompared to normal tissues, SRC expression is upregulated in various tumor tissues. SRC is significantly correlated with OS and in tumors such as LIHC and PRAD. Furthermore, SRC expression is significantly associated with mutation burden and microsatellite instability in tumors such as LUAD and COAD. In addition, SRC expression is related to the abundance of infiltrating immune cells in tumors such as LIHC and PRAD. These findings suggest that SRC may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for various cancers, and may be associated with the immune microenvironment of tumors.
conclusionOur results suggest that SRC may play a role in regulating immune infiltration and impacting the prognosis of cancer patients, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target and biomarker for various cancers.
