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

objectiveWe explored the preliminary value of abnormal spindle-like microcephaly- associated (ASPM) protein in aiding precise risk sub-stratification, prediction of metabolic heterogeneity, and prognosis of neuroblastoma (NB).

methodsThis retrospective study enrolled newly diagnosed patients with NB who underwent positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) before therapy, and tumor tissue was collected after surgery. Regression analysis was used to evaluate ASPM expression and risk stratification in patients with NB. The expression levels of ASPM, clinical information, and PET/CT text features were analyzed using univariate and multivariate survival analyses. Finally, a correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between ASPM and tumor metabolic heterogeneity.

resultsThere were 48 patients with NB in this study (35 boys and 13 girls); 22 patients progressed and 16 died. We found that the level of ASPM was highly associated with risk stratification (OR = 5.295, 95%IC: 1.348-41.722, p = 0.021). Patients with NB and high-risk stratification with high ASPM level had a lower 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate (14.28%) and 1-year PFS rate (57.14%) than those with low ASPM level (57.14% and 93.75%, respectively). Using univariate and multivariate survival analyses, this study revealed that ASPM and LDH were independent risk factors for both PFS and overall survival (OS), whales GLZLM_ZLNU was only a risk factor for PFS.

conclusionASPM holds promise as a novel biomarker for refining current risk stratification and predicting prognosis in neuroblastoma. Elevated levels of ASPM, LDH, and GLZLM_ZLNU may be associated with poorer survival outcomes in neuroblastoma patients.
