Construction of a Prognostic Nomogram Based on Autophagy-Related Genes for Children With Neuroblastoma.
Article in Evolutionary bioinformatics online, 2022. 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
Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common solid malignancy in children. MYCN gene amplification is the most relevant genetic alteration in patients with NB and is associated with poor prognosis. Autophagy plays specific roles in the occurrence, development, and progression of NB. Here, we aimed to identify and assess the prognostic effects of autophagy-related genes (ARGs) in patients with NB and MYCN gene amplification. Differentially expressed ARGs were identified in patients with NB with and without MYCN gene amplification, and the ARG expression patterns and related clinical data from the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments database were used as the training cohort. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analyses were used to identify prognostic ARGs associated with event-free survival (EFS), and a prognostic risk score model was developed. Model performance was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The prognostic ARG mode l was verified using the validation cohort dataset, GSE49710. Finally, a nomogram was constructed by combining the ARGbased risk score with clinicopathological factors. Three ARGs (GABARAPL1, NBR1, and PINK1) were selected to build a prognostic risk score model. The EFS in the low-risk group was significantly better than that in the high-risk group in both the training and validation cohorts. A nomogram incorporating the prognostic risk score, age, and International Neuroblastoma Staging System stage showed a favorable predictive ability for EFS rates according to the area under the ROC curve at 3 years (AUC = 0.787) and 5 years (AUC = 0.787). The nomogram demonstrated good discrimination and calibration. Our risk score model for the 3 ARGs can be used as an independent prognostic factor in patients with NB and MYCN gene amplification. The model can accurately predict the 3- and 5-year survival rates.
