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

backgroundRadiotherapy plays a vital role in the management of high-grade gliomas. However, the radio resistance of glioma cells limits the effect of radiation and drives recurrence inside the irradiated tumor volume leading to poor outcomes for patients.

methodsHigh-grade glioma cell radioresistance significantly contributes to radiotherapy failure, highlighting the importance of identifying predictive biomarkers for radioresistance. An increasing body of evidence complies with the Yes Associated Protein 1 (Yap-1) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) as biomarkers for radioresistance in glioma cells. A number of studies suggest the potential of radioresistance-associated factors as biomarkers and/ or novel therapeutic targets in glioma cells. Thus, it is essential for glioblastoma patients to identify robust druggable targets involved in radioresistance, optimizing irradiation protocol, and understanding their underlying molecular mechanisms.

resultsTherefore, in the present study, we hypothesized that hypofractionated Gamma Knife radiation therapy (HF-GKRT) could target Yap-1 and Hsp90 and downregulate the mechanism of radioresistance in high-grade glioma cells.

conclusionFor this purpose, expression levels of radioresistance markers Yap-1 and Hsp90 were evaluated after treatment with HF-GKRT, and this was compared with single fraction Gamma Knife radiation therapy (SF-GKRT) in U87MG primary human glioblastoma cell line model. This would help design a novel radiation therapy regimen for glioblastoma patients by reducing the risk of radioresistance.
