Significance of Nestin and CD133 as cancer stem cell markers in diffuse glioma and association with p53 expression and IDH status.

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
backgroundRecent evidence suggests that the tumor stem cells that are responsible for the pathogenesis of gliomas have similar properties to those of neural stem cells. We have studied two of the most consistently expressed stem cell markers in gliomas, i.e., CD133 and Nestin, and compared them with respect to p53 expression and IDH status.
objectivesTo assess the level of expression of Nestin and CD133, and identify a correlation among various grades of diffuse glioma with IDH status and expression of p53. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional retrospective study with 102 subjects for the expression of cancer stem cell markers; CD133 and Nestin and the correlation of their expression with that of p53 and IDH1 status in adult diffuse glioma. The study was conducted in the Departments of Pathology and Neurosurgery. The expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections. The scoring of expression of CD133 and Nestin was adapted from
conclusionsCancer stem cell markers CD133 and Nestin are expressed in diffuse glioma and have a higher expression with increasing WHO grade of malignancy. These cancer stem cell markers have shown significant association with the IDH-1 mutant status of diffuse gliomas. Hence, it can be inferred that diffuse gliomas with a higher expression of CD133 and Nestin have a poorer prognosis. Further, these cancer stem cell markers may be used as therapeutic targets in the future.
