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

backgroundUnderstanding the molecular mechanisms driving oncogenic processes in glioma is important in order to develop efficient treatments. Recent studies have proposed gasdermin D (GSDMD) as a newly discovered pyroptosis executive protein associated with tumorigenesis. However, the precise effect of GSDMD on glioma progression remains unknown.

methodsThe expression levels of GSDMD in 931 glioma and 1157 normal control tissues were collected. A series of bioinformatic approaches and in vivo and in vitro experiments were used to investigate the roles and mechanisms of GDSMD in glioma.

resultsSignificant upregulation of GSDMD was detected in glioma tissues compared to normal brain tissues. Patients with glioma and higher GSDMD levels had shorter overall survival, and the Cox regression analysis revealed that GSDMD was an independent risk factor. In addition, upregulation of GSDMD was associated with higher tumor mutation burden and PD-1/PD-L1 expression. Immune infiltration and single-cell analyses indicated that GSDMD was positively associated with an immunosuppressive microenvironment with more infiltrated macrophages and cancer-associated fibroblasts. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo experiments revealed that GSDMD knockdown inhibited glioma proliferation, migration, and growth in vivo.

conclusionOur analyses revealed a relatively comprehensive understanding of the oncogenic role of GSDMD in glioma. GSDMD is a promising prognostic biomarker and a potential target for glioma treatment.
