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

backgroundLung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) remains an aggressive malignancy with limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. Recent studies have identified disulfidptosis as a novel form of metabolic stress-induced cell death, but its clinical implications in LUSC remain unexplored. This study investigates the prognostic value of disulfidptosis-related genes (DRGs) in LUSC.

methodsWe analyzed transcriptomic data from TCGA-LUSC cohort and identified DRGs through intersection with established disulfidptosis-related gene sets. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, and univariate Cox regression was performed to select prognostic genes. A risk score model was developed using multivariate Cox regression. The model's performance was evaluated using ROC curve and Kaplan-Meier analyses. Functional enrichment and immune microenvironment analyses were conducted to explore potential mechanisms.

resultsWe identified 9 prognostic DRGs (FHOD1, ORC5, TRIR, ALKBH1, EPS8L2, MBLAC1, MYADM, HTRA2, and SRI) that significantly correlated with patient survival. The risk score model effectively stratified patients into high- and low-risk groups (P < 0.001), with C-index values of 0.78 at 1 year and 0.75 at 3 years. High-risk patients showed enriched cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions and immunosuppressive microenvironments, while low-risk patients exhibited activated metabolic pathways. Experimental validation confirmed ORC5's oncogenic role in promoting proliferation and invasion.

conclusionWe established a novel 9-gene prognostic signature based on disulfidptosis-related genes that effectively predicts LUSC outcomes. These findings highlight the clinical relevance of disulfidptosis in LUSC and provide potential biomarkers for risk stratification and therapeutic targeting.
