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

High-mobility group A1 (HMGA1) protein is an architectural transcription factor widely expressed during embryonic development and tumor progression. The purpose of this research was to investigate the expression of HMGA1 in malignant gliomas with different WHO classification and to study the correlation of HMGA1 expression with tumor proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis. Expression of HMGA1, Ki-67, MMP-9, VEGF-A, and MVD in malignant gliomas and their correlation were studied in 60 samples of different WHO classification by use of immunohistochemistry, and in 27 randomly selected samples by use of real-time quantitative PCR. Immunohistochemistry results showed that nuclear immunostaining of HMGA1 protein was not observed in normal brain tissues but was observed in 96.7% (58 of 60) of malignant gliomas including high (+++) in 15 (25.0%), moderate (++) in 28 (46.7%), and negligible to low (0-+) in 17 (28.3%) samples. Expression of HMGA1 protein was significantly higher in glioblastoma multiforme than in WHO grade II (P = 0.002) and WHO grade III gliomas (P = 0.024). HMGA1 protein expression correlated significantly with expression of Ki-67 (r = 0.530, P = 0.000), MMP-9 (r = 0.508, P = 0.000), VEGF-A (r = 0.316, P = 0.014), and MVD (r = 0.321, P = 0.012), but not with sex (r = 0.087, P = 0.510) and age (r = -0.121, P = 0.358). Real-time quantitative PCR results, also, were indicative of HMGA1 overexpression in glioblastoma multiforme compared with WHO grade II (P = 0.043) and WHO grade III (P = 0.031) gliomas. HMGA1 gene expression correlated significantly with gene expression of Ki-67 (r = 0.429, P = 0.025), MMP-9 (r = 0.443, P = 0.024), and VEGF-A (r = 0.409, P = 0.034). These results indicated that expression of HMGA1 correlates significantly with malignancy, proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis of gliomas. We conclude that HMGA1 may be a potential biomarker and rational therapeutic target for human tumors.
