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 aimed to investigate the methylation status of promoter 1 region of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in human glioma cells and to explore the effect of GDNF methylation on the expression of GDNF in glioma.

methodsGDNF gene mutation was detected by sequencing in 10 patients with glioma and 5 healthy controls. Bisulfite modification for analysis of DNA methylation was done to detect the methylation status of promoter 1 region of GDNF in 20 patients with glioma (10 with poorly differentiated and 10 with well differentiated) and 5 healthy controls.

resultsThere was no mutation at the promoter 1 region of GDNF gene in glioma. The incidence of methylation of GDNF gene at the promoter 1 region in healthy control, patients with poorly differentiated glioma and those with well differentiated glioma was 72.25%, 86.25% and 86.75%. The incidence of GDNF methylation in glioma was significantly higher than that in the normal brain (P<0.05); while there was no significant difference between well differentiated glioma and poorly differentiated glioma.

conclusionsHypermethylation occurs in the promoter 1 region of GDNF and may influence the expression of GDNF in glioma.
