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

Glioma is a highly aggressive form of brain cancer characterized by limited treatment options and poor patient prognosis. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the oncogenic role of thymosin beta-10 (TMSB10) in glioma through comprehensive analyses of patient data from the TCGA and GTEx databases. Our investigation encompassed several key aspects, including the analysis of patients' clinical characteristics, survival analysis, in vitro and in vivo functional experiments, and the exploration of correlations between TMSB10 expression and immune cell infiltration. Our findings revealed a significant upregulation of TMSB10 expression in glioma tissues compared to normal brain tissues, with higher expression levels observed in tumors of advanced histological grades. Moreover, we observed positive correlations between TMSB10 expression and patient age, while no significant association with gender was detected. Additionally, TMSB10 exhibited marked elevation in gliomas with wild-type IDH and noncodeletion of 1p/19q. Survival analysis indicated that high TMSB10 expression was significantly associated with worse overall survival, disease-specific survival, and progression-free survival in glioma patients. Functionally, knockdown of TMSB10 in glioma cells resulted in reduced cellular growth rates and impaired tumor growth in xenograft models. Furthermore, our study revealed intriguing correlations between TMSB10 expression and immune cell infiltration within the tumor microenvironment. Specifically, TMSB10 showed negative associations with plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) and
