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

The DnaJ/Hsp40 family member B6 (DNAJB6) is a protein aggregation inhibitor, and its dysregulation has been associated with various diseases. Although early studies implicated DNAJB6's role in tumor progression, its prognostic and immunotherapy predictive value across cancers remain undefined. Integrated multi-omics data analysis revealed significant upregulation of DNAJB6 in multiple tumors, particularly in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), supported by immunohistochemistry of liver tumor tissues and Western blot assays in HepG2 cells, and poor prognosis in LIHC patients was linked to increased DNAJB6 expression. ROC and univariate Cox analyses established DNAJB6 as an independent prognostic factor in LIHC, with good predictive value. Enrichment, immune scoring and single-cell sequencing analyses indicated that DNAJB6 was linked to immune responses, especially with myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) and exhausted CD8
