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: High-risk neuroblastoma (NB) still carries a <50% long-term survival despite risk-adapted therapy. Conventional risk metrics (age, stage, Methods: TF activities for 498 primary NB tumors (GSE49710) were inferred with decoupleR-univariate linear model (ULM) using the OmniPath regulon. TFs that were significantly associated with overall survival (OS; Cox; P<1×10-4; n=146) were subjected to consensus clustering and Boruta-guided principal component analysis (PCA) to create a continuous TF_score. Immune infiltration and immunotherapy surrogates, Immunophenoscore (IPS) and the Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE) framework, were compared across TF_score strata. A nomogram integrating TF_score, stage, and Results: Two robust NB subtypes were identified, with cluster 2 associated with worse prognosis, Conclusions: TF activity profiling provides robust stratification for NB, integrating clinical prognostication and immune characterization. This study offers novel insights into TF-driven NB biology, with implications for targeted therapy and immunotherapeutic strategies.
