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

backgroundBladder cancer (BLCA) is the most common malignant tumor in the genitourinary system, and the complex tumor microenvironment (TME) of BLCA is the main factor in its difficult treatment. Accumulated evidence supports that alternative splicing (AS) events frequently occur in cancer and are closely related to the TME. Therefore, there is an urgent need to comprehensively analyze the prognostic value of AS events in BLCA.

methodThe clinical, transcriptome and AS data of BLCA were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas database, and a Cox proportional hazard regression model and LASSO regression were used to establish a prognostic signature. Then, the prognostic value of the signature was verified by clinical survival status, clinicopathologic features, tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), and immune checkpoint. Next, we screened the AS-related genes with the largest expression differences between tumor and normal samples by gene differential expression analysis. Finally, the regulatory network of AS-splicing factors (SFs) was established to unravel the potential regulatory mechanism of AS events in BLCA.

resultsA BLCA prognostic signature related to seven AS events was constructed, and the prognostic value of the signature was also verified from multiple perspectives. Moreover, there was significant abnormal expression of

conclusionsOur study revealed the potential role of AS events in the prognosis, TIME and immunotherapy of BLCA and yielded new insights into the molecular mechanisms of and personalized immunotherapy for BLCA.
