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

Background: Dysregulation of chromatin regulators (CRs) can perturb the tumor immune microenvironment, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We focused on uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) and used gene expression data from TCGA-UCEC to investigate this mechanism. Methods: We used weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and consensus clustering algorithm to classify UCEC patients into Cluster_L and Cluster_H. TME-associated CRs were identified using WGCNA and differential gene expression analysis. A CR risk score (CRRS) was constructed using univariate Cox and LASSO-Cox regression analyses. A nomogram was developed based on CRRS and clinicopathologic factors to predict patients' prognosis. Results: Lower CRRS was associated with lower grade, more benign molecular subtypes, and improved survival. Patients with low CRRS showed abundant immune infiltration, a higher mutation burden, fewer CNVs, and better response to immunotherapy. Moreover, low CRRS patients were more sensitive to 24 chemotherapeutic agents. Conclusion: A comprehensive assessment of CRRS could identify immune activation and improve the efficacy of UCEC treatments.
