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

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is the most common primary malignancy of the pancreas. Growing studies indicate that transcription factors (TFs) are abnormally expressed in PAAD. We, therefore, aimed to evaluate the effect of TFs in PAAD and develop a TF-based prognostic signature for the patients. The expression of the TFs and the clinical characteristics were obtained from TCGA datasets. The levels of the TFs were evaluated in PAAD tissues or nontumor tissues. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) was used to determine the potential function of the dysregulated TFs. To create a prognostic signature, we used univariate and multivariate Cox regression. In addition, the relationship between risk score and tumor microenvironment was analyzed. In this study, we observed 19 increased and 10 decreased TFs in PAAD tissues. KEGG assays indicated that dysregulated TFs were involved in transcriptional misregulation in cancer. Multivariate Cox analysis identified two prognostic factors, Zinc finger protein 488 and BCL11A; and we developed a risk score model by these two factors. The Kaplan-Meier estimator suggested that patients with high risk exhibited a shorter overall survival than those with low risk. The receiver operating characteristic curve proved that the accuracy of this prognostic signature was 0.686 in predicting the 5-year survival. In addition, we observed that the high score was distinctly related to advanced tumor stage and immune infiltrates. Taken together, we developed a novel TF-related model which could be applied as a potential prognostic tool for PAAD and may guide the choice of immunotherapies.
