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

introductionPTEN often mutates in tumors, and its manipulation is suggested to be used in the development of preclinical tools in cancer research. This study aims to explore the biological impact of gene expression related to PTEN mutations and to develop a prognostic classification model based on the heterogeneity of PTEN expression, and to explore its sensitivity as an indicator of prognosis and molecular and biologic features in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIAL AND

methodsRNA-seq data and mutation data of the LIHC cohort sample downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The HCC samples were grouped according to the mean expression of PTEN, and the tumor microenvironment (TME) was evaluated by ESTIMATE and ssGSEA. The prognostic classification model related to PTEN were constructed by COX and LASSO regression analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between PTEN-high and -low expressed group.

resultsThe expression of PTEN was affected by copy number variation (CNV) and negatively correlated with immune score, IFNγ score and immune cell infiltration. 1281 DEGs were detected between PTEN-high and PTEN-low expressed group, 8 of the DEGs were finally filtered for developing a prognosis classification model. This model showed better prognostic value than other clinicopathological parameters, and the prediction accuracy of prognosis and ICB treatment for immunotherapy cohorts was better than that of TIDE model.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated the effect of CNV on PTEN expression and the negative immune correlation of PTEN, and constructed a classification model related to the expression of PTEN, which was of guiding significance for evaluating prognostic results of HCC patients and ICB treatment response of cancer immunotherapy cohorts.
