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

backgroundGlucose metabolism in breast cancer has a potential effect on tumor progression and is related to the immune microenvironment. Thus, this study aimed to develop a glucose metabolism-tumor microenvironment score to provide new perspectives on breast cancer treatment.

methodData were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus and UCSC Xena databases, and glucose-metabolism-related genes were acquired from the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis database. Genes with significant prognostic value were identified, and immune infiltration analysis was conducted, and a prognostic model was constructed based on the results of these analyses. The results were validated by in vitro experiments with MCF-7 and MCF-10A cell lines, including expression validation, functional experiments, and bulk sequencing. Single-cell analysis was also conducted to explore the role of specific cell clusters in breast cancer, and Bayes deconvolution was used to further investigate the associations between cell clusters and tumor phenotypes of breast cancer.

resultsFour significant prognostic genes (PMAIP1, PGK1, SIRT7, and SORBS1) were identified, and, through immune infiltration analysis, a combined prognostic model based on glucose metabolism and immune infiltration was established. The model was used to classify clinical subtypes of breast cancer, and PMAIP1 was identified as a potential critical gene related to glucose metabolism in breast cancer. Single-cell analysis and Bayes deconvolution jointly confirmed the protective role of the PMAIP1+ luminal cell cluster.
