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: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly malignant tumor with poor prognosis, and new treatment strategies are urgently needed. Currently, the role of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) in tumors has been studied, but the role of TREM-1 in GBM remains unclear. Methods: Immunohistochemical staining for TREM-1 was performed in 91 patients diagnosed with GBM. Clinicopathological characteristics and survival times were recorded. TREM-1 expression and its effect on prognosis were analyzed using online Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases. The expression profile of TCGA-GBM cohort was used to perform functional enrichment analysis. The CIBERSORT method and Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) database were used to estimate the tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs). The ESTIMATE algorithm was used to estimate the immune-stromal scores. Finally, the relationships of TREM-1 with TIICs, immune-stromal score, and immune checkpoint genes (ICGs) were analyzed. Results: The expression of TREM-1 was upregulated in GBM, and high TREM-1 expression predicted a poor prognosis. TREM-1, surgical resection, postoperative radiotherapy, and temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy were associated with the survival time of patients with GBM, but only surgical resection and TREM-1 expression were independent prognostic factors. GBM with high TREM-1 expression exhibited increased neutrophil and macrophage infiltration. TREM-1 was positively associated with the immune-stromal score and multiple ICGs, and most of which were involved in immunosuppressive responses. Conclusion: The present study revealed that high expression of TREM-1 in GBM is an independent poor prognosis factor and that TREM-1 is associated with the immunosuppressive microenvironment. Thus, blocking TREM-1 may be a strategy for enhancing the GBM immune response.
