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

backgroundPD-L1 promotes glycolysis in tumour cells. We observed a correlation between high PD-L1 expression and high

methodsFor bioinformatics analysis, WGCNA, GSEA and TIMER were applied to analyse the pathways and hub genes associated with PD-L1 and glucose uptake.

resultsBioinformatics analysis showed that several signalling pathways are associated with both PD-L1 expression and tumour glucose uptake, among which JAK-STAT may be an important one. By in vitro experiments, the regulatory role of PD-L1 on glucose uptake was demonstrated, and its dependency on the JAK-STAT pathway was also verified by the rescue study. The SUV
