Circadian clock genes promote glioma progression by affecting tumour immune infiltration and tumour cell proliferation.
Article in Cell proliferation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 60 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesCircadian rhythm controls complicated physiological activities in organisms. Circadian clock genes have been related to tumour progression, but its role in glioma is unknown. Therefore, we explored the relationship between dysregulated circadian clock genes and glioma progression. MATERIALS AND
methodsSamples were divided into different groups based on circadian clock gene expression in training dataset (n = 672) and we verified the results in other four validating datasets (n = 1570). The GO and GSEA enrichment analysis were conducted to explore potential mechanism of how circadian clock genes affected glioma progression. The single-cell RNA-Seq analysis was conducted to verified previous results. The immune landscape was evaluated by the ssGSEA and CIBERSORT algorithm. Cell proliferation and viability were confirmed by the CCK8 assay, colony-forming assay and flow cytometry.
resultsThe cluster and risk model based on circadian clock gene expression can predict survival outcome. Samples were scoring by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis, and high scoring tumour was associated with worse survival outcome. Samples in high-risk group manifested higher activation of immune pathway and cell cycle. Tumour immune landscape suggested high-risk tumour infiltrated more immunocytes and more sensitivity to immunotherapy. Interfering TIMELESS expression affected circadian clock gene expression, inhibited tumour cell proliferation and arrested cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase.
conclusionsDysregulated circadian clock gene expression can affect glioma progression by affecting tumour immune landscape and cell cycle. The risk model can predict glioma survival outcome, and this model can also be applied to pan-cancer.
