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 and deadly malignant tumor of the nervous system. RIMS1, a member of the RAS gene superfamily, plays a critical role in signaling pathways regulating cell growth and differentiation. However, the prognostic value of RIMS1, particularly its relationship with immune cell infiltration in gliomas, has not been fully explored. RIMS1 expression in glioblastoma cells and tissues was assessed using bioinformatics platforms. The association between RIMS1 expression levels and overall survival was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression model. To evaluate the proliferative and migratory capacity of GBM cells, we conducted CCK-8, colony formation, transwell, and scratch assays. With data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we investigated the correlation between RIMS1 expression and immune cell infiltration levels and assessed the prognostic impact of RIMS1 on GBM patient survival, focusing on its potential involvement in immune pathways. Lower RIMS1 expression was associated with poorer overall survival and was linked to patient age, gender, and tumor grade. Importantly, RIMS1 expression showed a significant correlation with immune cell infiltration levels, suggesting that RIMS1 influences glioblastoma survival, at least in part, through immune-related mechanisms. In glioblastoma patients, elevated RIMS1 expression may serve as an independent prognostic biomarker, potentially through its impact on immune cell infiltration.
