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

Cervical cancer is still an important problem perplexing health management in developing countries. Previous studies have shown that cervical cancer cells show markers of aerobic glycolysis, suggesting that these tumors may secrete lactic acid. Through the biological characterization of lactate gene in tumor and its relationship with immune cells in tumor microenvironment, a lactate scoring system capable of evaluating cancer prognosis was constructed to explore the molecular mechanism of lactate metabolism disorder affecting prognosis. 29 hub genes in this study were differentially expressed in cervical cancer, including 24 genes related to lactate metabolism, LDHA in Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) group, SLC16A3 in Monocarboxylate transporters (MCT) group and three Histone lactation modification related genes (EP300, ACAT1, ACACA). More importantly, we found that from an epigenetic point of view, histone lactation plays an important role in the pathogenesis and prognosis of cervical cancer. Mainly affect the prognosis of the disease through changes in the infiltration of plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell (pDC) and Central Memory T cell (Tcm) in the tumor immune microenvironment. Lactate inhibition may be a useful tool for anticancer therapy.
