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: Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynecological cancer worldwide and the sixth most common female malignant tumor. A large number of studies conducted through database mining have identified many biomarkers that may be related to survival and prognosis. However, the predictive ability of single-gene biomarkers is not sufficiently accurate. In recent years, tumors have been shown to interact closely with their microenvironment, and tumor-infiltrating immune cells in the tumor microenvironment were associated with therapeutic effects. Furthermore, sequencing technology has evolved and allowed the identification of genetic signatures that may improve prediction results. The purpose of this research was to discover the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data to evaluate new genetic features that can predict the prognosis of EC. Methods: mRNA expression profiling was analyzed in patients with EC identified in the TCGA database (n = 530). Differentially expressed genes at different stages of EC were screened using the immune cell enrichment score (ImmuneScore). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses was applied to evaluate genes significantly related to overall survival and establish the prognostic risk parameter formula. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the logarithmic rank method were applied to verify the importance of risk parameters for the prognostic forecast. The accuracy of survival prediction was confirmed using the nomogram and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The mRNA expression of eight genes were measured by qRT-PCR. According to COX and HR values, NBAT1, a representative gene among 8 genes, was selected for CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay and transwell invasion assay to verify the effect on survival. Results: Eight related genes ( Conclusions: Eight related gene markers were identified using ImmuneScore, which could predict prognosis and survival in patients with EC. These findings provide a basis for understanding the application of biological information in tumors and identifying the poor prognosis of EC.
