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) exhibits elevated TRIM22 expression correlated with tumor progression, as validated in TCGA/GEO databases. The effects of TRIM22 knockdown and overexpression on GBM proliferation were evaluated with cellular assays. TRIM22 was identified as a potential Bcl-2 activator via a ubiquitination microarray. Flow cytometry (FCM) was utilized to investigate cell apoptosis. Additionally, the expression levels of Bcl-2 and proteins associated with Bcl-2 were evaluated using Western blot analysis. The interaction and ubiquitination of TRIM22 and Bcl-2 were analyzed via immunoprecipitation (IP). TRIM22 overexpression is correlated with glioma progression, and TRIM22 deficiency inhibits GBM cell proliferation. FCM revealed that TRIM22 knockdown promotes GBM cell apoptosis. A TRIM22-overexpressing ubiquitination microarray identified TRIM22 as a potential activator of Bcl-2. Western blot analysis revealed that TRIM22 increases the protein expression levels of Bcl-2. Ubiquitination assays revealed that TRIM22 promotes the stability of Bcl-2 via nondegradative ubiquitination. IP experiments indicated that TRIM22 binds to Bcl-2. TRIM22 may significantly impact glioma progression by modulating Bcl-2. Previous studies have shown that knockdown of TRIM22 can enhance the sensitivity of temozolomide treatment, so TRIM22 is expected to become a new target for glioma immunotherapy.
