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

backgroundGlioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor with a poor prognosis. The initial treatment for high-grade gliomas is surgical excision. However, even with concomitant use of radiation or chemotherapy, patients are still prone to recurrence. The specific pathogenesis of GBM is still controversial.

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) between GBM and normal brain tissues were screened. P-value was obtained by Bayes test based on the limma package. Statistical significance was set as P-value <0.05 and |Fold change (FC)| > 0.2 (GSE90886); P-value <0.05 and |FC| > 1 (GSE116520, GSE103228). Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), protein-protein interaction (PPI) network were performed. Hub genes were selected from miRNA target genes and DEGs. GBM and normal brain tissues were extracted to verify the expression.

resultsA total of 100 DEGs were overlapped in both datasets. Analysis of pathways and process enrichment tests indicated that ion transport, positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process, cell cycle, axon guidance were enriched in the GBM. Sixteen hub genes were identified. Hub genes ADARB1 and neuropilin 1 (NRP1) were significantly associated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) (P<0.05). Eukaryotic translation termination factor 1 (ETF1) was associated with DFS (P<0.05).

conclusionsDEGs and DEMs were found between GBM tumor tissues and normal brain tissues. These biomarkers may be used as targets for early diagnosis and specific treatment.
