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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the expression of CAVIN3 in cervical cancer, its effect on radiotherapy outcomes, and its potential molecular mechanisms. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe GEPIA2 database was used to screen genes that may affect cervical cancer prognosis. Then, we analyzed 133 cervical cancer patients from the TCGA database who received radiotherapy to evaluate CAVIN3 gene expression and function. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Cox regression models were employed to assess the diagnostic value of CAVIN3 and its association with radiotherapy outcomes. GSEA, GO, and KEGG databases were used to perform pathway enrichment analysis of CAVIN3-related signaling pathways. We also collected pretreatment biopsy specimens from 66 patients who were subsequently treated with radiotherapy from our center to validate the findings from the database analysis.

resultsIn the TCGA database, CAVIN3 expression was significantly lower in cervical cancer tissues than in normal cervical tissues (

conclusionsCAVIN3 downregulation is a frequent event in cervical cancer and may contribute to tumor susceptibility. Paradoxically, within tumors, low expression of CAVIN3 is associated with an enhanced response to radiotherapy, likely stemming from the underlying phenotype characterized by poor differentiation and heightened radiosensitivity. Therefore, CAVIN3 expression levels are correlated with cervical cancer development and the radiotherapy response of cervical cancer patients.
