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

introductionNicotine facilitates the progression of Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) by activating signaling pathways and remodeling the Tumor Microenvironment (TME). However, the molecular classification based on nicotine response spectrum and its clinical relevance remained unclear. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrieved 52 nicotine response-related genes from the MSigDB database and analyzed RNA-seq data obtained from TCGA-LUAD and GSE31210 cohorts. Distinct molecular subtypes were identified by consensus clustering analysis. Next, differential gene expression analysis and functional enrichment analysis were conducted. A prognostic RiskScore model was constructed using LASSO and Cox regression, and validated via Kaplan-Meier and ROC analyses. Immune microenvironment features were assessed using CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE, and TIDE algorithms, while pathway associations were explored via GSEA.

resultsTwo distinct molecular subtypes (C1 and C2) were identified, with C1 showing a more favorable prognosis. A RiskScore model developed based on five genes DISCUSSION: This study was the first to classify nicotine response-related molecular subtypes for LUAD, offering novel insights into nicotine-driven progression of LUAD. The RiskScore and nomogram may aid in risk stratification and personalized management, though further experimental validation is still needed.

conclusionThis study established a nicotine response-related prognostic model for LUAD, revealing its utility in predicting survival and immune therapy responses. Our findings provided novel biomarkers for personalized precision medicine in LUAD.
