Pan-cancer analysis of the prognostic and immunological role of GJB2: a potential target for survival and immunotherapy.
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Background: GJB2 plays an essential role in the growth and progression of several cancers. However, asystematic pan-cancer analysis of GJB2 is lacking. Therefore, in this study, we performed a comprehensive pan-cancer analysis to determine the potential role of GJB2 in prognostic prediction and cancer immunotherapy response. Methods: The differential expression of GJB2 in the tumor and adjacent normal tissues of various cancer types was analyzed using the TIMER, GEPIA, and Sangerbox databases. GEPIA and Kaplan-Meier plotter databases were used to analyze the survival outcomes based on GJB2 expression levels in pan-cancer. Furthermore, the association of GJB2 expression with the immune checkpoint (ICP) genes, tumor mutational load (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), neoantigens, and tumor infiltration of immune cells was analyzed using Results: The Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that GJB2 played a significant role in tumorigenesis and tumor immunity in multiple cancers. Furthermore, GJB2 is a potential prognostic biomarker and a promising therapeutic target in multiple types of cancers.
