Abnormal expression of menin predicts the pathogenesis and poor prognosis of adult gliomas.

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
Several brain tumors is closely related to the disorder of chromatin histone modification, whereas the epigenetic mechanisms of the incidence of highly malignant adult glioma is not yet deeply studied. Deletion or mutation of the MEN1 gene, which encodes the epigenetic regulator menin, specifically induces poorly differentiated neuroendocrine tumors; however, the biological and clinical importance of MEN1 in the nervous system remains poorly understood. Menin expression was robustly activated in 44.4% of adult gliomas. Abnormally high expression of menin was closely related to a shorter median survival time of 20 months, a larger tumor volume and a higher percentage of Ki67 staining. Interestingly, menin expression was also activated in the cytoplasm of tumor cells (38.8%) and was also closely related to the poor prognosis of patients with glioma. Importantly, in a screening of 96 types of small-molecule targeted histone modification regulators, menin inhibitors were found to significantly block the proliferation of adult glioma cells. Our findings confirm that menin is a potential biomarker of poor prognosis in adult gliomas, independent of the WHO grade. Targeting menin may effectively inhibit certain gliomas, and this information provides novel insight into therapeutic strategies for glioma.
