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

Patients with glioblastoma (GBM) face a dismal prognosis. GBMs are driven by glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) that display a neural stem cell (NSC)-like phenotype. These glioblastoma stem cells are often in a quiescent state that evades current therapies, namely debulking surgery and chemo/radiotherapy. Leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) proteins have been implicated as regulators of growth factor signalling across many tissue stem cells. Lrig1 is highly expressed in gliomas and importantly, polymorphisms have been identified that are risk alleles for patients with GBM, which suggests some functional role in gliomagenesis. We previously reported that Lrig1 is a gatekeeper of quiescence exit in adult mouse neural stem cells, suppressing epidermal growth factor receptor signalling prior to cell cycle re-entry. Here, we perform gain- and loss-of-function studies to understand the function of Lrig1 in glioblastoma stem cells. Using a novel mouse glioblastoma stem cell model, we show that genetic ablation of
