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

backgroundBreast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant tumor in women. The immunophenotype of tumor microenvironment (TME) has shown great therapeutic potential in tumor.

methodThe transcriptome was obtained from TCGA and GEO data. Immune infiltration was analyzed by single-sample gene set enrichment (ssGSEA). The immune feature was constructed by Cox regression analysis. In addition, the coexpression of differential expression genes (DEGs) was identified. Through enrichment analysis, the function and pathway of module genes were identified. The somatic mutations related to immune characteristics were analyzed by Maftools. By using the consistency clustering algorithm, the molecular subtypes were constructed, and the overall survival time (OS) was predicted.

resultsImmune landscape can be divided into low immune infiltration and high immune infiltration. Cox regression analysis identified seven immune cells as protective factors of BC. In the coexpression modules for DEGs of high and low immune infiltration, module 1 was related to T cells and high immune infiltration. In particular, the area under the curve (AUC) value of hub gene SASH3 was the highest, and the correlation with T cells was stronger in the high immune infiltration. Enrichment analysis found that oxidative stress, T cell aggregation, and apoptosis were observed in high immune infiltration. In addition, TP53 was identified as the most important somatic gene mutation related to immune characteristics. Importantly, we also constructed seven immune cell-based breast cancer subtypes to predict OS.

conclusionWe evaluated the immune landscape of BC and constructed the gene characteristics related to the immune landscape. The potential of T cells and SASH3 in immunotherapy of BC was revealed, which may guide the development of new clinical treatment strategies.
