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

rationaleGlioma has a poor survival rate in patients even with aggressive treatment. Temozolomide (TMZ) is the standard chemotherapeutic choice for treating glioma, but TMZ treatment consistently leads to high resistance.

aimTo investigate the underlying mechanisms of TMZ action with new therapeutic regimens in glioma. METHODS AND

resultsThe biological effects of TMZ mainly depend on the three following DNA repair systems: methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT), mismatch repair (MMR) and base excision repair (BER). Based on related genes in these three systems, web-based tools containing data compiled from open-source databases, including DrugBank, STRING, WebGestalt and ClueGO, were queried, and five common genes along with the top fifteen pathways, including the glioma pathway, were identified. A genomic analysis of the six genes identified in the glioma pathway by cBioPortal indicated that TMZ might exert biological effects via interaction with the tumor protein P53(TP53) signaling axis. Finally, a survival analysis with the six genes in glioma cases (low-grade glioma and glioblastoma multiforme) was conducted using OncoLnc, which might provide directions for the future exploration of prognosis in glioma.

conclusionsThis study indicates that a functional network analysis resembles a "BioGPS", with the ability to draw a web-based scientific map that can productively and cost-effectively associate TMZ with its primary and secondary biological targets.
