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

The role and underlying mechanism of cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 3 (CPEB3) in clear cell renal cell carcinoma [ccRCC progression remain poorly characterized. The present study was designed to evaluate the role of CPEB3 in ccRCC and its clinical associations. The overall response rate of first-line therapies (ICIs combined with VEGFR-TKIs or ICI combination) for ccRCC] is 42.0-59.3%, so a number of patients with ccRCC do not benefit from these therapies. To avoid immunosurveillance and immune killing, tumor cells decrease immunogenicity and recruit immunosuppressive cells such as regulatory T cells (Tregs). Tregs inhibit the development of anti-tumor immunity, thereby hindering immune surveillance of cancer and preventing effective anti-tumor immune response in tumor-bearing hosts. The present study analyzed clinical specimens from patients ccRCC and then examined the role of CPEB3 in ccRCC via bioinformatics analysis. CPEB3 expression was significantly reduced in ccRCC compared with normal tissue and low CPEB3 expression was associated with poor overall survival. Moreover, CPEB3 expression was an independent predictor of survival. CPEB3 expression was positively associated with immune biomarkers [CD274, programmed cell death 1 ligand 2, Hepatitis a virus cellular receptor 2, Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL)9, CXCL10, Inducible T cell costimulatory, CD40, CD80 and CD38] that improve the outcome of anti-tumor immune responses. CPEB3 expression in ccRCC also affected the status of 24 types of infiltrating immune cell, of which Tregs were the most significantly negatively correlated cell type. CPEB3 may serve as a prognostic biomarker in ccRCC and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of Tregs.
