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

Background: Immune microenvironment serves a vital role in glioma progression, and a large number of studies have found that tumor progression can be reduced to some extent by modulating the immune process in tumors. Materials and Methods: ImmuneScore of each sample in CGGA datasets were calculated with Estimate R package, and samples were grouped by median ImmuneScore values for differential analysis to obtain immune microenvironment differential genes. We further conducted survival analysis, ROC curve analysis, independent prognostic analysis, and clinical correlation analysis on glioma sample genes in CGGA to obtain glioma prognostic genes, and then identified their intersection with immune microenvironment DEGs by Venn tool. The GEPIA and UALCAN databases were used to verify the differential expression of intersecting genes in the glioma and normal brain and to identify our target gene. After validation of their prognostic value, we constructed a nomogram to calculate the risk score and to estimate the accuracy of prognostic model. We mined co-expression genes, enriched functions and pathways, and correlations to immune cell infiltration of unigene with an online database. Finally, we verified the differential expression of FCGBP in glioma by immunohistochemical staining. Results: We finally selected Fc fragment of IgG-binding protein (FCGBP) as our study gene. The prognostic values of FCGBP were validated by a series of analyses. Immunohistochemical staining showed that FCGBP expression increased in gliomas and was up-regulated with the progression of glioma grade. Conclusion: As a key unigene in glioma progression, FCGBP contributes to the regulation of immune microenvironment and has the potential to be a prognostic biomarker and immune targets.
