Development and validation of a hypoxia-immune-based microenvironment gene signature for predicting survival in non-small cell lung cancer.
Article in Discover oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThis study aims to establish a hypoxia-immune-related gene signature within the tumor microenvironment (TME) to reliably predict prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
methodsTranscriptomic profiles and clinical data of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases (GSE74777, GSE68465). Hypoxia- and immune-related genes were curated from MSigDB, ImmPort, and INATDB. Prognostic genes were identified via Cox and LASSO regression analyses, and a risk model was constructed. Model validity was assessed through Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and external validation.
resultsAn eight-gene prognostic signature (AKAP12, MT2A, SERPINE1, CD1E, CD79A, CXCL13, XCL2, ANGPTL4) was established. The model demonstrated significant predictive accuracy for NSCLC survival (AUC: 0.643/0.649/0.620 at 1/3/5 years in TCGA cohort). Patients with high immune activity exhibited superior survival outcomes compared to those with low-immune counterparts (log-rank P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression confirmed the risk score as an independent prognostic factor (HR = 1.82, 95% CI: 1.44-2.30, P < 0.001).
conclusionsThe hypoxia-immune microenvironment signature serves as a robust prognostic classifier for NSCLC, providing a quantitative framework for personalized risk stratification and clinical decision support.
