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 is the most common and lethal brain cancer globally. Clinically, this cancer has heterogenous molecular and clinical characteristics. Studies have shown that UBE2S is highly expressed in many cancers. But its expression profile in glioma, and the correlation with clinical outcomes is unknown. RNA sequencing data of glioma samples was downloaded from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas and The Cancer Genome Atlas. A total of 114 cases of glioma tissue samples (WHO grades II-IV) were used to conduct protein expression assays. The molecular and biological characteristics of UBE2S, and its prognostic value were analyzed. The results showed that high UBE2S expression was associated with a higher grade of glioma and PTEN mutations. In addition, UBE2S affected the degree of malignancy of glioma and the development of chemo-radiotherapy resistance. It was also found to be an independent predictor of worse survival of LGG patients. Furthermore, we identified five UBE2S ubiquitination sites and found that UBE2S was associated with Akt phosphorylation in malignant glioblastoma. The results also revealed that UBE2S expression was negatively correlated with 1p19q loss and IDH1 mutation; positively correlated with epidermal growth factor receptor amplification and PTEN mutation. This study demonstrates that UBE2S expression strongly correlates with glioma malignancy and resistance to chemo-radiotherapy. It is also a crucial biomarker of poor prognosis.
