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

The use of vaccines for cancer therapy is a promising immunotherapeutic strategy that has been shown to be effective against various cancers. Vaccines directly target tumors but their efficacy against glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains unclear. Immunotyping that classifies tumor samples is considered to be a biomarker for immunotherapy. This study aimed to identify potential GBM antigens suitable for vaccine development and develop a tool to predict the response of GBM patients to vaccination based on the immunotype. Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) was applied to evaluate the expression profile of GBM antigens and their influence on clinical prognosis, while the cBioPortal program was utilized to integrate and analyze genetic alterations. The correlation between antigens and antigen processing cells was assessed using TIMER. RNA-seq data of GBM samples and their corresponding clinical data were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) for further clustering analysis. Six overexpressed and mutated tumor antigens (ARHGAP9, ARHGAP30, CLEC7A, MAN2B1, ARPC1B and PLB1) were highly correlated with the survival rate of GBM patients and the infiltration of antigen presenting cells in GBMs. With distinct cellular and molecular characteristics, three immune subtypes (IS1-IS3) of GBMs were identified and GBMs from IS3 subtype were more likely to benefit from vaccination. Through graph learning-based dimensional reduction, immune landscape was depicted and revealed the existence of heterogeneity among individual GBM patients. Finally, WGCNA can identify potential vaccination biomarkers by clustering immune related genes. In summary, the six tumor antigens are potential targets for developing anti-GBMs mRNA vaccine, and the immunotypes can be used for evaluating vaccination response.
