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

Non-histone acetylation regulates protein stability, transcription, and immune signaling, yet its substrate-specific roles in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) remain unclear. We performed an integrative multi-omics analysis to characterize acetylation substrate-related transcriptional signatures and their clinical relevance. Expression patterns and prognostic impacts of 33 acetylation-related enzymes were evaluated pan-cancer, and substrate-related networks were computationally inferred. A 15-gene substrate expression-based acetylation substrate-related imbalance score (AIScore) stratified COAD patients into prognostically distinct groups. Single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics revealed AIScore-high malignant cells preferentially interacting with SPP1-positive macrophages, forming immunosuppressive niches with reduced predicted immunotherapy response. Exploratory deep learning-based pathomics of whole-slide images, including ResNet-50 feature extraction, PCA, clustering, and Grad-CAM visualization, highlighted AIScore-associated morphologic hotspots at tumor-immune interfaces. These findings indicate that non-histone acetylation substrate-related transcriptional programs in COAD are linked to poor prognosis and spatial immune heterogeneity, while pathomics provides supportive morphology-linked evidence requiring further validation.
