Comprehensive analysis regarding the prognostic significance of downregulated ferroptosis-related gene AKR1C2 in gastric cancer and its underlying roles in immune response.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Ferroptosis is a cell death form that has been reported to be involved in the progression of gastric cancer (GC). However, the underlying mechanism of ferroptosis in GC still needs to be further explored. This study conducted a survey regarding the biological functions of ferroptosis-related gene AKR1C2 in GC. Multiple bioinformatic platforms were applied to indicate that the expression level of AKR1C2 was downregulated in GC tissues, which displayed good prognostic value. Clinical statistics proved that AKR1C2 expression was correlated with several tumor characteristics of GC patients, such as characteristics of N-stage tumor or residual tumor. Additionally, LinkedOmics was employed to explore the co-expression network and molecular pathways of AKR1C2 in GC. Eventually, AKR1C2 was found to be involved in several immune-related signatures, such as immunostimulators, immunoinhibitors, chemokines and chemokine receptors. To sum up, these results may provide a novel insight into the significance and biological functions of ferroptosis-related gene AKR1C2 in GC tumorigenesis.
