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

backgroundGlioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant tumor in the central system with a poor prognosis. Due to the complexity of its molecular mechanism, the recurrence rate and mortality rate of GBM patients are still high. Therefore, there is an urgent need to screen GBM biomarkers to prove the therapeutic effect and improve the prognosis.

resultsWe extracted data from GBM patients from the Gene Expression Integration Database (GEO), analyzed differentially expressed genes in GEO and identified key modules by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). GSE145128 data was obtained from the GEO database, and the darkturquoise module was determined to be the most relevant to the GBM prognosis by WGCNA (

conclusionWe used two public databases to identify four valuable biomarkers for GBM prognosis, namely DARS/GDI2/P4HA2/TRUB1, which have potential clinical application value and can be used as prognostic markers for GBM.
