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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsEGFRvIII is the most prevalent glioblastoma mutation, occurring in more than 25% of glioblastomas. EGFRvIII cells release microvesicles that contain proteins, miRNAs, and mRNAs that enhance the growth and survival of surrounding tumor cells. However, little is known about the maturation process and regulatory mechanisms of secreted vesicles in EGFRvIII cells.

methodsSignal peptide peptidase (SPP) provides a fascinating mechanism for protein cleavage and subsequent dislocation in the endoplasmic reticulum transmembrane domain.

resultsIn this study, we reported that SPP facilitates the secretion of cytokines in vitro and promotes tumor progression in mice. Human cytokine antibody arrays revealed that EGFRvIII secreted higher levels of cytokines, but these levels were significantly reduced following SPP knockdown, suggesting that cytokines in EGFRvIII secretion profiles play important roles in GBM development. Identical results were confirmed in intracellular maturation tracking of TGF-β1 in mouse serum. Clinically, analyses of GBM patient data from the database revealed that HM13 expression was closely related to patient prognosis and survival, suggesting an influence by the secreted vesicles of EGFRvIII tumor cells.

conclusionsCollectively, our study identifies that SPP affects EGFRvIII secretion profiles and thus promotes tumor progression, providing further understanding of the formation of secreted vesicles and driving role of EGFRvIII in GBM.
