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

The blood-brain barrier is often altered in glioblastoma (GBM) creating a blood-brain-tumor barrier (BBTB) composed of pericytes. The BBTB affects chemotherapy efficacy. However, the expression signatures of BBTB-associated pericytes remain unclear. We aimed to identify BBTB-associated pericytes in single-cell RNA sequencing data of GBM using pericyte markers, a normal brain pericyte expression signature, and functional enrichment. We identified parathyroid hormone receptor-1 (PTH1R) as a potential marker of pericytes associated with BBTB function. These pericytes interact with other cells in GBM mainly through extracellular matrix-integrin signaling pathways. Compared with normal pericytes, pericytes in GBM exhibited upregulation of several ECM genes (including collagen IV and
