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

Few breakthroughs have been achieved in the treatment of lower-grade glioma (LGG) in recent decades. Apart from the conventional pathological and histological classifications, subtypes based on immunogenomics would provide reference for individualized treatment and prognosis prediction. Our study identified four immunotypes of lower-grade glioma (clusters A, B, C, and D) by bioinformatics methods in TCGA-LGG and two CGGA datasets. Cluster A was an "immune-cold" phenotype with the lowest immune infiltration and longest survival expectation, whereas cluster D was an "immune-rich" subtype with the highest immune infiltration and poor survival expectation. The expression of immune checkpoints increased along with immune infiltration degrees among the clusters. It was notable that immune clusters correlated with a variety of clinical and immunogenomic factors such as age, WHO grades, IDH1/2 mutation, PTEN, EGFR, ATRX, and TP53 status. In addition, LGGs in cluster D were sensitive to cisplatin, gemcitabine, and immune checkpoint PD-1 inhibitors. RTK-RAS and TP53 pathways were affected in cluster D. Functional pathways such as cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, antigen processing and presentation, cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), and ECM-receptor interaction were also enriched in cluster D. Hub genes were selected by the Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) algorithm in the blue module of a gene co-expression network. Our studies might provide an immunogenomics subtyping reference for immunotherapy in LGG.
