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), the most common malignant primary brain tumor, has a very poor prognosis. With increasing knowledge of tumor molecular biology, targeted therapies are becoming increasingly integral to comprehensive GBM treatment strategies. mTOR is a key downstream molecule of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, integrating input signals from growth factors, nutrients, and energy sources to regulate cell growth and cell proliferation through multiple cellular responses. mTOR/PI3K dual-targeted therapy has shown promise in managing various cancers. Here, we report that taxifolin, a flavanone commonly found in milk thistle, inhibited mTOR/PI3K, promoted autophagy, and suppressed lipid synthesis in GBM.
