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

backgroundEndometrial cancer (UCEC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in gynecology, and early diagnosis is crucial for its treatment. Currently, there is a lack of early screening tests specific to UCEC, and treatment advances are limited. It is crucial to identify more sensitive biomarkers for screening, diagnosis, and predicting UCEC. Previous studies have shown that UBE2T is involved in the development of various tumors such as breast cancer and liver cancer, but research on the role of UBE2T in UCEC is limited.

methodsUsing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and UALCAN databases, we analyzed the differential expression of UBE2T mRNA and protein in endometrial cancer (UCEC), along with its clinical relevance. A total of 113 clinical samples were collected, and immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis were employed to validate bioinformatics analysis results. Volcano plots were generated using UBE2T and its differentially expressed genes, and a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), and immune infiltration analysis were used to predict the functional role of UBE2T in UCEC progression. Correlation between UBE2T expression and patient survival was analyzed using TCGA data, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted.

resultsUBE2T is significantly overexpressed in UCEC and correlates with poor prognosis. Its overexpression is closely associated with mitosis, cell cycle regulation, and histological grade in UCEC patients.

conclusionUBE2T is highly expressed in UCEC and suppresses anti-tumor immune responses in UCEC patients. It serves as a key participant in UCEC progression, associated with a range of adverse outcomes, and holds potential as a clinical diagnostic and prognostic biomarker.
