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

Glioblastoma (GBM) stem cells (GSCs) contribute to poor prognosis in patients with GBM. Identifying molecular markers is crucial for developing targeted therapies. Here, we identify cluster of differentiation 97 (CD97) as an optimal GSC surface antigen for potential targeting by chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy through in vitro antibody screening. CD97 is consistently expressed in all validated patient-derived GSCs and positively correlated with known intracellular GSC markers. Silencing CD97 reduces GSC tumorigenicity-related activities, including self-renewal, proliferation, and tumor progression. Transcriptome analysis reveals that CD97 activates mTORC2, leading to AKT S473 phosphorylation and enhanced expression of the downstream genes ARHGAP1, BZW1, and BZW2. Inhibiting mTORC2 with JR-AB2-011 suppresses GSC tumorigenicity and downstream gene expression. We develop CD97-CAR T helper (Th) 9 cells, which exhibit potent cytotoxic effects in vitro and extend survival in mice. These findings suggest that CD97 is a promising GSC-enriched antigen and that targeting it with CAR Th9 cells offers a potential therapeutic strategy for GBM.
