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) is the most common malignant intracranial neoplasm. Treatment with surgical resection and concurrent chemoradiotherapy may not achieve satisfactory results in life expectancy. Temozolomide (TMZ) chemoresistance is one of the most common reasons for treatment failure, but the role of the circadian cycle and autophagic pathways in this phenomenon is unknown. This study investigated the relationship between the circadian cycle and autophagic pathways in GBM and its TMZ chemoresistance counterpart. The predictive potential of NR1D1 and MGMT was analyzed by using 631 glioma cases derived from the TCGA GBM dataset. Human GBM cell lines (U-87 MG, GBM 8401) and their TMZ chemoresistance counterparts were used for MGMT, circadian proteins (CLOCK, BMAL1, NR1D1), and LC3B analysis. In addition, immunohistochemical staining for NR1D1 was performed in 78 GBM samples, and the results were analyzed with patients' clinicopathological parameters. Results revealed a decrease in NR1D1 expression in GBM cells which could enhance TMZ chemosensitivity. Different expressions of autophagic markers were also noted in GBM cell lines with and without TMZ chemoresistance, indicating a significant role for NR1D1 in TMZ chemoresistance in the GBM cell line. In addition, higher expression of NR1D1 in tumor samples was correlated with poor prognosis and shorter survival. In conclusion, high levels of NR1D1 not only could predict poor prognosis but it could also be used as a chemosensitizer for TMZ in GBM patients.
