A step-by-step protocol based on data mining to explore purinergic signaling in glioblastoma.
Article in Purinergic signalling, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Over the past few years, transcriptomics has emerged as a pillar for modern scientific research, enabling the comprehensive profiling of gene expression. The availability of large-scale public datasets, such as NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus, International Cancer Genome Consortium, and The Cancer Genome Atlas, has significantly boosted many scientific discoveries. However, to analyze and interpret these vast datasets, sophisticated bioinformatic tools are often necessary. Phantasus is a user-friendly web application designed to streamline gene expression analysis. By integrating data loading, normalization, filtering, enrichment pathways analysis, and principal component analysis, Phantasus enables researchers to promptly investigate and evaluate complex gene expression patterns. This tool simplifies the identification of differentially expressed genes and the discovery of novel biological insights. Here, we demonstrate how Phantasus can be utilized for gene expression analysis in glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary malignant brain tumour in adults. Specifically, we focus on the role of purinergic signaling, with particular emphasis on the P2RX7 mRNA coding for the P2X7 receptor (P2RX7). To illustrate our proposal, we analyzed the expression of genes related to purinergic signaling in GBM patients stratified by high and low levels of P2RX7 expression. By harnessing Phantasus, researchers can further explore and navigate the nuances of gene regulation and its impact on human health and diseases.
