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

As a transcription factor, the role of CASZ1 in different entities is inconsistent. Glioma is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Its prognostic relevance and biological functions in glioma remain obscure. We focused on the role, mechanism, and prognostic value of CASZ1 in glioma cells. Herein, CASZ1 was identified as a novel potential oncogene in glioma tissues from GEO and TCGA datasets. CASZ1 was highly expressed in glioma tissues, predicting poor prognosis in glioma patients. Knockdown of CASZ1 inhibited proliferation and invasion in vitro, whereas upregulation of CASZ1 presented opposite results. Overexpression of CASZ1 increased transcriptional process of target gene p75NTR. CASZ1 was the potential transcriptional regulators for p75NTR. In addition, the p75NTR expression is essential for CASZ1 to exert its function as an oncogene. Our findings indicate that highly expressed CASZ1 in glioma cells acts as a pro-oncogene factor in gliomas via regulating transcriptional process of target gene p75NTR, which was identified as an unfavorable prognostic marker in patients with gliomas. CASZ1 is expected to become a novel target for the treatment of gliomas.
