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

Epigenetic changes, including H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 histone modification, play an important role in carcinogenesis. However, no genome-wide histone modification map has been generated for gliomas. Here, we report a genome-wide map of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 histone modifications for 8 glioma stem cell (GSC) lines, together with the associated gene activation or repression patterns. In addition, we compared the genome-wide histone modification maps of GSC lines to those of astrocytes to identify unique gene activation or repression profiles in GSCs and astrocytes. We also identified a set of bivalent genes, which are genes that are associated with both H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 marks and are poised for action in embryonic stem cells. These bivalent genes are potential targets for inducing differentiation in glioblastoma (GBM) as a therapeutic approach. Finally, we identified SLC17A7 as a bivalent tumor suppressor gene in GBM, as it is down-regulated at both the protein and RNA levels in GBM tissues compared with normal brain tissues, and it inhibits GBM cell proliferation, migration and invasion.
