S100A6 is a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for human glioma.

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.
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
S100 calcium-binding protein A6 (S100A6) is a protein that belongs to the S100 family. The present study aimed to investigate the function of S100A6 in the diagnosis and survival prediction of glioma and elucidated the potential processes affecting glioma development. The Cancer Genome Atlas database was searched to identify the relationship among S100A6 expression, immune cell infiltration, clinicopathological parameters and glioma prognosis. Several clinical cases were used to verify these findings. S100A6 gene expression was high in glioma tissues, suggesting its diagnostic significance. In particular, S100A6 upregulation in glioma tissues exhibited a significant and positive correlation with the World Health Organization (WHO) grade, histological type, age, sex, primary treatment outcomes, 1p/19q codeletion, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status, overall survival (OS), progression-free interval and disease-specific survival. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses revealed that S100A6 gene expression can independently function as a risk factor affecting the prognosis of patients with glioma. Furthermore, Gene Ontology functional enrichment analysis revealed that S100A6 is implicated in immune responses and that the expression profiles of S100A6 are linked to the immune microenvironment. Furthermore, immunohistochemistry revealed that increased S100A6 protein levels are correlated with age, 1p/19q codeletion, IDH status, WHO grade and OS. The present findings suggest that increased S100A6 expression is an indicator of the dismal prognosis of patients with glioma and that it can be used as a potential diagnostic biomarker for this condition.
