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

This study aimed to reveal the correlation of increased TEA domain transcription factor 4 (TEAD4) expression and disease prognosis in glioma. The expression data of TEAD4 mRNA in glioma were collected from GEO database (GSE4290), and the expression of TEAD4 protein in glioma was confirmed using western blot and Immunohistochemistry. Kaplan-Meier analysis with the log-rank test was used to reveal the correlation of TEAD4 expression level and patients' survival. The effects of TEAD4 on migration and invasion were separately examined by Transwell assay and Boyden assay. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to predict the possible biological function of TEAD4 in glioma. The results showed that TEAD4 mRNA and protein expression were upregulated in glioma tissues compared to normal brain tissues. Furthermore, overexpression of TEAD4 correlated with poor prognosis in glioma patients. Knockdown of TEAD4 markedly inhibited glioma cells migration and invasion in vitro. Consistent with the result that TEAD4 was associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) closely by GESA, knockdown of TEAD4 resulted in N-cadherin, vimentin and Slug downregulated but E-cadherin upregulated. Our study indicated that overexpression of TEAD4 may represent as a potential unfavorable marker for poor survival and prognosis in glioma. Knockdown of TEAD4 led to suppressed glioma migration and invasion.
