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

Breast cancer has become one of the most common malignant tumors in women. Although the emergence of molecular typing has greatly improved the prognosis of breast cancer patients, some patients still face drug resistance, recurrence and metastasis. At present, the development of effective biomarkers is still an important direction of breast cancer research. This study aims to provide new ideas for individualized treatment of breast cancer by identifying new biomarkers and constructing models to predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients. In this study, seven tumor-dependent genes associated with tumor proliferation were identified through the combined analysis of bulk-RNA sequencing and CRISPR-CAS9, and the mechanism of their potential promotion of tumor proliferation was initially analyzed. Immune infiltration analysis suggested these genes may be associated with the formation of immunosuppressive microenvironment. In addition, we constructed a gene signature based on seven genes that can predict prognostic risk in patients with breast cancer. The group with higher signature scores was associated with more GATA3 somatic mutations. Finally, we screened potential drugs suitable for high-risk groups to improve their outcomes. Our study provides potential therapeutic targets as well as individualized treatment strategies for breast cancer.
