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 primary malignant brain tumor in adults. For patients with GBM, the median overall survival (OS) is 14.6 months and the 5-year survival rate is 7.2%. It is imperative to develop a reliable model to predict the survival probability in new GBM patients. To date, most prognostic models for predicting survival in GBM were constructed based on bulk RNA-seq dataset, which failed to accurately reflect the difference between tumor cores and peripheral regions, and thus show low predictive capability. An effective prognostic model is desperately needed in clinical practice.

methodsWe studied single-cell RNA-seq dataset and The Cancer Genome Atlas-glioblastoma multiforme (TCGA-GBM) dataset to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that impact the OS of GBM patients. We then applied the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox penalized regression analysis to determine the optimal genes to be included in our risk score prognostic model. Then, we used another dataset to test the accuracy of our risk score prognostic model.

resultsWe identified 2128 DEGs from the single-cell RNA-seq dataset and 6461 DEGs from the bulk RNA-seq dataset. In addition, 896 DEGs associated with the OS of GBM patients were obtained. Five of these genes (LITAF, MTHFD2, NRXN3, OSMR, and RUFY2) were selected to generate a risk score prognostic model. Using training and validation datasets, we found that patients in the low-risk group showed better OS than those in the high-risk group. We validated our risk score model with the training and validating datasets and demonstrated that it can effectively predict the OS of GBM patients.

conclusionWe constructed a novel prognostic model to predict survival in GBM patients by integrating a scRNA-seq dataset and a bulk RNA-seq dataset. Our findings may advance the development of new therapeutic targets and improve clinical outcomes for GBM patients.
