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

Glioma is an aggressive brain tumor with a poor prognosis. Establishing an in vitro culture model that closely replicates the cellular composition and microenvironment of the original tumor has been challenging, limiting its clinical applications. Here, we present a novel approach to generate glioma organoids with a microenvironment (GlioME) from patient-derived glioma tissue. These organoids maintain the genetic and epigenetic characteristics of the primary tumor and preserve cell-to-cell interactions within the tumor microenvironment, including resident immune cells. Bulk RNA sequencing, whole exome sequencing, and DNA methylation analysis were used to confirm the molecular similarities between the organoids and primary glioma tissues. Immunofluorescence and flow cytometry were used to assess immune cell viability, comparing GlioME with floating glioma organoids. GlioME exhibited high responsiveness to chemotherapy and targeted therapy, demonstrating its potential for therapeutic screening applications. Notably, GlioME accurately predicted patient response to the recently approved MET inhibitor, vebreltinib. Thus, this organoid model provides a reliable in vitro platform for glioma microenvironment-related research and clinical drug screening.
