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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common type of malignant brain tumor, among which IDH1-wild type GBM has a poor prognosis. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) are correlated with the development and progression of cancer. In GBM, the role of FRGs associated with IDH1 status as biological indicators and therapeutic targets remains to be clarified. Ten of FRGs (STEAP3, HSPB1, MAP1LC3A, SOCS1, LOX, CAPG, CP, GDF15, CDKN1A, and CD44) associated with IDH1 status in GBM were identified as key genes through screening by survival analysis and Random Forest using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets, and the protein expressions of key genes were verified. Transwell and qPCR results showed that ferroptosis promoted the migration of glioblastoma cells and affected the expression of key genes. Our study established the ferroptosis-related prognostic model for GBM patients based on ten key genes by a different modeling method from previous study, the GSVA algorithm. Further, we took the methods of functional enrichment analysis, clinical characteristics, immune cell infiltration, immunomodulator, ESTIMATE and single nucleotide variant (SNV) analysis to study the molecular mechanisms of prognostic model and key genes. The results showed that ten key genes were strongly associated with immune-related factors and were significantly involved in the p53 signaling pathway, senescence and autophagy in cancer, and in the negative regulation of protein kinase activity. Moreover, potential therapeutic drugs were identified by Virtual Screening and Molecular Docking. Our study indicated that the novel ferrotosis-related prognostic model for GBM patients and key genes possessed the prognostic and therapeutic values.
