FDX1 as a predictive biomarker and therapeutic target for lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer.
Article in Clinical and experimental medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 prognostic values of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in gastric cancer with lymph node metastasis (GCLM), especially in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), remain unclear. We analyzed the expression, mutation, immunity, drug sensitivity, and prognostic value of CRGs in GCLM using TCGA and GEO cohorts. Consensus clustering was performed to identify CRG subtypes, with differences characterized by multi-omics analysis. A CRG-based prognostic risk score and immune score were constructed for individualized assessment, and the role of CRGs was validated through in vitro and in vivo experiments. Consensus clustering revealed that CRGs were significantly enriched in biological processes related to mitosis and energy metabolism, as well as in immune-related and cancer-associated pathways. Four distinct CRG subtypes were identified, showing marked differences in expression profiles, prognosis, genetic alterations, TIME, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity. We developed an exploratory CRG-based prognostic risk score for preliminary individualized assessment, and the functional relevance of CRGs in GCLM was further validated through in vitro experiments. Among these, FDX1, LIAS, DLAT, MTF1, and GLS were identified as key determinants of overall survival in patients with GCLM, with FDX1 emerging as a potential independent prognostic factor. Notably, upregulation of FDX1 significantly suppressed lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer cells in a mouse popliteal lymph node metastasis model. Our data uncovers FDX1 might be a potential favorable prognostic factors in GCLM patients. These findings may improve our understanding of CRGs in GCLM and provide new in-sights for assessing prognosis and developing more effective treatment strategies.
