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

backgroundFerroptosis and disulfidptosis are newly discovered forms of regulated cell death that play critical roles in cancer progression, metabolism, and immune evasion. However, their interplay and combined influence on colorectal cancer (CRC) progression remain insufficiently understood.

methodsWe developed a ferroptosis-disulfidptosis-related gene (FDRG) score using machine-learning algorithms to analyze gene modifications associated with these pathways in CRC, utilizing data from the TCGA and GEO databases. The model was externally validated, and associations with clinical outcomes, immune infiltration, mutational landscapes, immunotherapy responses, and drug sensitivity were explored. Key genes were further investigated through bioinformatics and in vitro experiments.

resultsWe constructed an 8-gene risk model with strong prognostic value, stratifying CRC patients into high- and low-risk groups with significant differences in clinical characteristics, immune cell infiltration, and therapeutic responses. Among these genes, CHMP6 was identified as a previously uncharacterized tumor suppressor in CRC. Beyond its inhibitory effect on tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, CHMP6 was found to play a critical role in modulating anti-tumor immunity. Our findings established CHMP6 as a dual-function tumor suppressor that not only restrains tumor progression but also enhances immune-mediated tumor control.

conclusionsThe FDRG score is a robust tool for predicting CRC prognosis, tumor microenvironment dynamics, and response to immunotherapy. CHMP6 emerged as a promising tumor suppressor and potential therapeutic target, offering new insights into CRC treatment strategies.
