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

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive intracranial tumors. Despite the comprehensive treatments, the median survival of GBM patients is still dismal. Consequently, it is critical to explore potential biomarkers and underlying molecular mechanisms of GBM. We integrated two datasets (GSE19728 and GSE 4290) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of GBM. Eighty-two GBM samples and 31 brain normal samples were screened by using GEO2R and Draw Venn Diagram. We carried out Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) to analyze gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) to analyze the DEGs. To further screen hub genes, protein-protein interaction (PPI) of these DEGs was visualized by Cytoscape with Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING). GEPIA and UALCAN website were utilized to identify the hub genes expression and survival data. In total, 568 common DEGs were determined, including 141 upregulated genes and 427 downregulated genes. Thirty-five hub genes were identified in the highest module consisting of 35 nodes and 535 edges, which are mainly associated with cell cycle, p53 signaling pathway. According to the further analysis results of hub genes, we found that the PDZ-binding kinase (PBK) gene had a high expression and significantly worse survival in GBM contrasted to brain normal samples (P < 0.05). PBK could be a potential prognostic factor and therapeutic target for GBM treatment. In the future, the potential biomarkers for significant prognostic information can be preliminarily assessed using this method, although further experimentations are needed to verify the results.
