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 tumor microenvironment (TME) of gliomas comprises glioma cells and surrounding cells, such as astrocytes, macrophages, T cells, and neurons. In the TME, glioma cells can activate normal human astrocytes (NHAs) through the secretion of exosomes and the activation of astrocytes can further improve the progression of glioma, leading to a poor prognosis for patients. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying NHAs activation by gliomas remain largely unknown. It this study, glioma-derived exosomes (GDEs) play an important role in the modulation of autophagy and activation of NHAs. Compared with normoxic GDEs, hypoxic glioma-derived exosomes (H-GDEs) further improved autophagy and activation of astrocytes, which strongly promoted the progression of glioma cells. In an miRNA array between two types of exosomes from gliomas, miR-423-3p was highly expressed in H-GDEs and played an important role in autophagy, resulting in the activation of NHAs. The mechanism by which hypoxic glioma cells react with NHAs to create an immunosuppressive microenvironment was identified and 15d-PGJ2 was established as an effective inhibitor of miR-423-3p to suppress NHAs activation. These findings provide new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of gliomas by targeting autophagy and miR-423-3p expression.
