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: The dysregulation of genes related to lipid metabolism and lysosomal function has been reported to significantly contribute to tumor progression. In this study, we systematically explored the roles played by lipid metabolism and lysosomes in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), aiming to identify potential biomarkers for predicting prognosis and immune checkpoint therapy efficacy. Methods: Genes associated with lipid metabolism and lysosomal function were retrieved from the MSigDB and GO databases. Transcriptomic data and clinical information of patients were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. A prognostic model was constructed using consensus clustering, univariate Cox regression, and LASSO regression. ROC curves, Kaplan-Meier plots, and calibration curves were employed to assess the predictive capacity of the model, while ssGSEA, TIDE, and IPS were used to evaluate the response of high- and low-risk groups to immunotherapy. Drug sensitivity was assessed with the "oncoPredict" R package. Given that we identified a strong association between Results: An eight-gene ( Conclusion: We constructed a risk prognostic model for UCEC based on a combination of lysosomal- and lipid metabolism-related genes. Our findings highlight the oncogenic potential of PLAAT1 in endometrial cancer and provide novel insights into the diagnosis and therapy of this cancer type.
