Proteomic Profiles Associated With Postsurgical Progression in Nonfunctioning Pituitary Adenomas.
Article in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
contextThere is a lack of reliable biomarkers capable of predicting postoperative tumor progression of nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs).
objectiveTo discover proteomic profiles associated with postoperative tumor progression in patients with NFPAs. This was a case-controlled exploratory study at a tertiary university hospital. Tissue samples were obtained from 46 patients with residual tumor following surgery for NFPAs of gonadotroph lineage. Two patient groups were compared: patients requiring reintervention due to residual tumor progression (cases; reintervention group, n = 29) and patients with a residual tumor showing no progression for a minimum of 5 years (controls; radiologically stable group, n = 17). Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between patient groups were measured.
resultsGlobal quantitative proteomic analysis identified 4074 proteins, of which 550 were differentially expressed between the 2 groups (fold change >80%, false discovery rate-adjusted P ≤ .05). Principal component analysis showed good separation between the 2 groups. Functional enrichment analysis of the DEPs indicated processes involving translation, ROBO-receptor signaling, energy metabolism, mRNA metabolism, and RNA splicing. Several upregulated proteins in the reintervention group, including SNRPD1, SRSF10, SWAP-70, and PSMB1, are associated with tumor progression in other cancer types.
conclusionThis is the first exploratory study analyzing proteomic profiles as markers of postoperative tumor progression in NFPAs. The findings clearly showed different profiles between tumors with indolent postoperative behavior and those with postoperative tumor progression. Both enriched pathways involving DEPs and specific upregulated proteins have previously been associated with tumor aggressiveness. These results suggest the value of proteomic profiling for predicting tumor progression in patients with NFPAs.
