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 tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in the progression of gastric cancer (GC) and its response to treatment, particularly by modulating parthanatos (PA). However, the prognostic significance of TME and PA, as well as their potential roles in immunotherapy for GC, remain incompletely understood. Methods: Using publicly available data, an initial gene screening was combined with differential expression analysis and univariate Cox regression to identify prognostic markers associated with TME and PA. A comprehensive machine learning framework, testing 101 algorithm combinations across 10 methodologies, was then applied. Model selection prioritized C-index performance, with the final model enabling effective patient risk stratification, as validated by Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves. Multivariate analysis subsequently identified independent prognostic factors, which were used to construct a clinical nomogram. Immune characteristics across different risk groups were compared, immunofluorescence staining of gastric cancer and paired paracancerous tissues assessed immune cell infiltration and prognostic gene-monocyte correlation. Biomarker expression patterns were confirmed Results: The multi-algorithm analysis identified the RSF-plsRcox hybrid model as the most accurate, consistently achieving C-index values greater than 0.6 across all datasets. This model identified seven clinically significant genes ( Conclusions: This study innovatively integrated TME-RGs and PA-RGs to construct a machine learning GC prognostic model (7 key genes:
