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

Glioblastoma remains one of the deadliest forms of cancer. Infiltrating cancer cells in the surrounding brain prevent complete resection, and tumor cell resistance to chemoradiation results in the poor prognosis of the glioblastoma (GBM) patient. Much research has been devoted over the years to the pathogenesis and treatment of GBM. The tumor stem cell hypothesis, which was initially described in hematopoietic cell malignancies, may explain the resistance of these tumors to conventional therapies. In this model, a certain subset of tumor cells, with characteristics similar to normal stem cells, is capable of producing the variety of cell types, which constitute the bulk of a tumor. As these tumor cells have properties distinct from those constituting the bulk of the tumor, a different approach may be required to eradicate these residual cells within the brain. Here we outline the history behind the theory of GBM cancer stem-like cells, as they are now referred to. We will also discuss the implications of their existence on commonly held beliefs about GBM pathogenesis and how they might influence future treatment strategies.
