Functional genetic variants of GEN1 predict overall survival of Chinese epithelial ovarian cancer patients.
Article in Journal of translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundInherited variations in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway are known to influence ovarian cancer occurrence, progression and treatment response. Despite its significance, survival-associated genetic variants within the DSB pathway remain underexplored.
methodsIn the present study, we performed a two-phase analysis of 19,290 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 199 genes in the DSB repair pathway from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) dataset and explored their associations with overall survival (OS) in 1039 Han Chinese epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) patients. After utilizing multivariate Cox regression analysis with bayesian false-discovery probability for multiple test correction, significant genetic variations were identified and subsequently underwent functional prediction and validation.
resultsWe discovered a significant association between poor overall survival and the functional variant GEN1 rs56070363 C > T (CT + TT vs. TT, adjusted hazard ratio (HR) = 2.50, P < 0.001). And the impact of GEN1 rs56070363 C > T on survival was attributed to its reduced binding affinity to hsa-miR-1287-5p and the resultant upregulation of GEN1 mRNA expression. Overexpression of GEN1 aggregated EOC cell proliferation, invasion and migration presumably by influencing the expression of immune inhibitory factors, thereby elevating the proportion of polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) and then constructing an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.
conclusionsIn conclusion, GEN1 rs56070363 variant could serve as a potential predictive biomarker and chemotherapeutic target for improving the survival of EOC patients.
