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 multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor with patient mortality rate close to 100%, 5-yr survival rate of ∼5%, and a median survival of 14 mo. GBMs have notorious histomorphologic and molecular heterogeneities thus giving hope for development of future personalized therapies. We describe here a case of a 48-yr-old male patient with three-nodular GBM. To address the question of intratumoral molecular heterogeneity, a comparative analysis of gene expression was performed by using multiple samples collected from different tumor sites with the aid of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Sixteen GBM biosamples from parietal, temporal, and temporo-polar localizations were collected from primary, recurrent, and second recurrent tumors and were obtained and investigated by RNA sequencing. Our investigations revealed that biosamples derived from different tumor sites differ in their gene expression profiles with classical or mesenchymal signatures associated with clinically distinct molecular subtypes of GBM found within the same tumor. The results also showed significant differences in the expression of genes specific for targeted therapeutics. Our investigations have enabled the identification of four novel fusion transcripts-
