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 aggressive and lethal form of glioma, with current standard-of-care treatments including surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ). However, therapeutic resistance to TMZ frequently arises, partly attributed to autophagy, as demonstrated by analysis of clinical glioblastoma specimens. Through screening of mulberry metabolites, a bioactive small molecule, Sanggenol L (SL) is identified, which inhibits glioblastoma growth and blocks autophagy flux, thereby markedly enhancing TMZ chemosensitivity when delivered via a liposome-based system. Mechanistically, SL is found to suppress mitophagy by promoting ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation of OPTN. Moreover, the first evidence that SL upregulates TRIM16 expression is presented, which acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase for OPTN degradation in glioblastoma. TRIM16 depletion or OPTN overexpression partially abrogated SL-induced suppression of autophagy and apoptosis in GBM cells. Collectively, these findings suggest that SL enhances TMZ sensitivity by disrupting autophagy and inducing apoptosis through TRIM16-mediated OPTN degradation.
