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

High immune-cell infiltration in glioblastomas (GBMs) leads to immunotherapy resistance. Emerging evidence has shown that zinc finger Asp-His-His-Cyc-type (ZDHHC) palmitoyl transferases participate in regulating tumor progression and the immune microenvironment. In the present study, a large cohort of patients with gliomas from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Rembrandt databases was included to perform omics analysis of ZDHHCs in gliomas. CCK-8, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time PCR, western blotting, and transwell assays were performed to determine the effects of ZDHHC inhibition on glioma cells and microglia. We found that five (ZDHHC11, ZDHHC12, ZDHHC15, ZDHHC22, and ZDHHC23) out of 23 ZDHHCs were aberrantly expressed in gliomas and might play their roles through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway. Further results indicated that inhibition of ZDHHCs with 2-bromopalmitate (2-BP) suppressed glioma-cell viability and autophagy, as well as promoted apoptosis. Targeting ZDHHCs also promoted the sensitivity of glioma cells to temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. In addition, the inhibition of ZDHHCs weakened the migratory ability of microglia induced by glioma cells
