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

Background: Glioma is the most common tumor of the central nervous system with a poor prognosis. This study aims to explore the role of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIβ (CAMK2B) in regulating the malignant progression of glioma cells, as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying these malignant behaviors. Methods: The correlation between CAMK2B expression in gliomas and patient prognosis was analyzed using immunohistochemistry, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blot. Furthermore, the study explored the role of CAMK2B in glioma cell proliferation, invasion, and migration using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), 5-Ethynyl-2 Result: Patients with high CAMK2B expression exhibited significantly better prognostic outcomes compared to those with low expression levels. Furthermore, CAMK2B expression was significantly lower in glioma tissues and cells compared to both normal brain tissue and human astrocyte cell lines. Notably, overexpression of CAMK2B in glioma cells led to an approximate 40% reduction in proliferative capacity and a 60-70% decrease in invasive and migratory abilities, compared to control glioma cells. These differences were statistically significant at Conclusion: CAMK2B inhibits glioma proliferation, invasion, and migration through the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signaling pathway.
