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

Gliomas are aggressive tumors in the central nervous system and glioblastoma is the most malignant type. Ferroptosis is a programmed cell death that can modulate tumor resistance to therapy and the components of tumor microenvironment. However, the relationship between ferroptosis, tumor immune landscape, and glioblastoma progression is still elusive. In this work, data from bulk RNA-seq analysis, single cell RNA-seq analysis, and our own data (the Xiangya cohort) are integrated to reveal their relationships. A scoring system is constructed according to ferroptosis related gene expression, and high scoring samples resistant to ferroptosis and show worse survival outcome than low scoring samples. Notably, most of the high scoring samples are aggressive glioblastoma subtype, mesenchymal, and classical, by calculating RNA velocity. Cross-talk between high scoring glioblastoma cells and immunocytes are explored by R package 'celltalker'. Ligand-receptor pairs like the TRAIL or TWEAK signaling pathway are identified as novel bridges implying how ferroptosis modulate immunocytes' function and shape tumor microenvironment. Critically, potential drugs target to high scoring samples are predicted, namely, SNX2112, AZ628, and bortezomib and five compounds from the CellMiner database. Taken together, ferroptosis associates with glioblastoma aggressiveness, cross-talk with immunocytes and offer novel chemotherapy strategy.
