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

backgroundSkin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) is a highly aggressive and deadly subtype of skin cancer. Lack of efficient biomarkers for prognosis has limited the improvement of survival outcome for patients with SKCM.

methodsIn this study, we obtained RNA-seq data from TCGA and GTEx databases, followed by identification of differential expressed genes, univariate Cox regression, and LASSO regression to identify prognostic SASP-related genes in the TCGA datasets and constructed a prognostic risk-scoring model.

resultsThe establishment of prognostic model was based on the expression levels of 14 SASP-related genes, including ASPRV1, ICAM1, IL2RA, ABCC2, HLA-B, TPMT, ATM, CD59, KIR2DL4, CTLA4, ITGB3, FOXM1, NOX4, and TRIM21. Patients with melanoma who were in the high-risk group had a shorter overall survival (OS), indicating that the model served as an independent prognostic index. Furthermore, we found that the risk score was potentially linked to immune scores, estimate score, immune cell infiltration level, and immunotherapy efficacy.

conclusionsThis study presented a new prognostic model for assessing therapy in melanoma patients, providing a fresh perspective for combating melanoma.
