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

Certain glioma subtypes, such as glioblastoma multiforme or low-grade glioma, are common malignant intracranial tumors with high rates of relapse and malignant progression even after standard therapy. The overall survival (OS) is poor in patients with gliomas; hence, effective prognostic prediction is crucial. Herein, the present study aimed to explore the potential role of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 subunit alpha (HIF1α) in gliomas and investigate the association between HIF1α and infiltrating immune cells in gliomas. Data from The Cancer Genome Atlas were evaluated via RNA sequencing, clinicopathological, immunological checkpoint, immune infiltration and functional enrichment analyses. Validation of protein abundance was performed using paraffin-embedded samples from patients with glioma. A nomogram model was created to forecast the OS rates at 1, 3 and 5 years after cancer diagnosis. The association between OS and HIF1α expression was estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the log-rank test. Finally, HIF1α expression was validated using western blotting, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, Cell Counting Kit-8 and Transwell assays. The results demonstrated that HIF1α expression was significantly upregulated in gliomas compared with normal human brain glial cells. Immunohistochemistry staining demonstrated differential expression of the HIF1α protein. Moreover, glioma cell viability and migration were inhibited via HIF1α downregulation. HIF1α impacted DNA replication, cell cycling, DNA repair and the immune microenvironment in glioma. HIF1α expression was also positively associated with several types of immune cells and immunological checkpoints and with neutrophils, plasmacytoid dendritic cells and CD56
