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

Temozolomide (TMZ), one of the few effective drugs used during adjuvant therapy, could effectively prolong the overall survival (OS) of glioma patients. In our previous study, the mRNA level of G Protein Subunit Alpha 13 (GNA13) was found to be inversely correlated with OS and was therefore identified as a potential biomarker for the prognosis of glioma. Henceforth, this study aims to identify the molecular mechanism of GNA13 in enhancing TMZ sensitization through bioinformatic analyses of GSE80729 and GSE43452 and other experiments. In glioma, overexpression of GNA13 downregulated PRKACA, which is a subunit of PKA, hence reducing phosphorylated RELA and MGMT. Since p-RELA and MGMT were proven to be closely associated with TMZ resistance, we therefore investigated whether thetwo signaling pathways, "GNA13/PRKACA/p-RELA", and "GNA13/PRKACA/MGMT", were involved in the molecular mechanism of GNA13 in TMZ sensitization. Our conclusion was that, GNA13 overexpression in glioma cells were more sensitive in TMZ treatment.
