Radiotherapy Upregulates Programmed Death Ligand-1 through the Pathways Downstream of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Glioma.
Article in EBioMedicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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.
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
backgroundIn the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway in the up-regulation of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) caused by radiotherapy (RT). MATERIALS AND
methodsTissue microarrays (TMA) consisting of glioma cancer specimens from 64 patients were used to examine the correlation between PD-L1 and EGFR levels. Furthermore, we performed in vitro experiments to assess the role of EGFR pathway in RT-upregulated PD-L1 expression using human glioma cell lines U87 and U251.
resultsOur data demonstrated that the PD-L1 expression was significantly correlated with EGFR expression in glioma specimens (χ
conclusionsRT could up-regulate the PD-L1 expression through the pathways downstream of EGFR in glioma.
