Mucins as Precision Biomarkers in Glioma: Emerging Evidence for Their Potential in Biospecimen Analysis and Outcome Prediction.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Despite attempts at improving survival by employing novel therapies, progression in glioma is nearly universal. Precision biomarkers are critical to advancing outcomes; however, biomarkers for glioma are currently unknown. Most data on which the field can draw for biomarker identification comprise tissue-based analysis requiring the biospecimen to be removed from the tumor. Non-invasive specimen-based precision biomarkers are needed. Mucins are captured in tissue and blood and are increasingly studied in cancer, with several studies exploring their role as biomarkers to detect disease and monitor disease progression. CA125, also known as MUC16, is implemented as a biomarker in the clinic for ovarian cancer. Similarly, several mucins are membrane-bound, facilitating downstream signaling associated with tumor resistance and hallmarks of cancer. Evidence supports mucin expression in glioma cells with relationships to tumor detection, progression, resistance, and patient outcomes. The differential expression of mucins across tissues and organs could also provide a means of attributing signals measured in serum or plasma. In this review, we compiled existing research on mucins as candidate precision biomarkers in glioma, focusing on promising mucins in relationship to glioma and leading to a framework for mucin analysis in biospecimens as well as avenues for validation as data evolve.
