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
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) has the feature of aggressive growth and high rates of recurrence. Immunotherapy was not included in standard therapy for GBM due to lacking the predictive biomarkers. In the present study, we performed an immune-related gene pair (IRGP) signature to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy response of GBM. Methods: A total of 160 GBM patients from TCGA were included. ssGSEA was conducted to evaluate the immune infiltration level. Univariate Cox, LASSO regression analysis, ROC analysis, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were applied to construct and evaluate the risk model. Moreover, the association between immune infiltration and the risk score was assessed. Finally, the expression of immune checkpoints between different risk groups was explored. Results: According to the normal/tumor, high-/low-immunity group, we identified 125 differentially expressed immune-related genes. Subsequently, a prognostic model including 22 IRGPs was established. The area under the ROC curve to predict 1, 3, and 5-year was 0.811, 0.958, and 0.99 respectively. According to the optimal cut-off value of the 3-year ROC curve, patients were classified into high- and low-risk groups. The Kaplan-Meier analysis result indicated that patients in the low-risk group have longer survival time. The risk score was an independent prognostic predictor ( Conclusions: The IRGP signature was built to predict the prognosis of GBM patients. This signature can serve as a tool to predict the response to immunotherapy in GBM.
