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

Aberrant reprogramming of metabolism has been considered a hallmark in various malignant tumors. The metabolic changes of amino acid not only have dramatic effects in cancer cells but also influence their immune-microenvironment in gliomas. However, the features of the amino acid metabolism-related and immune-associated gene set have not been systematically described. The expression level of mRNA was obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database, which were used as training set and validation set, respectively. Different bioinformatics and statistical methods were combined to construct a robust amino metabolism-related and immune-associated risk signature for distinguishing prognosis and clinical pathology features. Constructing the nomogram enhanced risk stratification and quantified risk assessment based on our gene model. Besides this, the biological mechanism related to the risk score was investigated by gene set enrichment analysis. Hub genes of risk signature were identified by the protein-protein interaction network. The amino acid metabolism-related and immune-associated gene signature recognized high-risk patients, defined as an independent risk factor for overall survival. The nomogram exhibited a high accuracy in predicting the overall survival rate for glioma patients. Furthermore, the high risk score hinted an immunosuppressive microenvironment and a lower sensitivity of immune checkpoint blockade therapy and also identified PSMC5 and PSMD3 as novel biomarkers in glioma. In conclusion, a novel amino acid metabolism-related and immune-associated risk signature for predicting prognosis in glioma has been constructed and identified as two potential novel biomarkers.
