Lipid Biomarkers in Glioma: Unveiling Molecular Heterogeneity Through Tissue and Plasma Profiling.

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.
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
Gliomas are aggressive brain tumours with diverse histological and molecular features, complicating accurate diagnosis and treatment. Dysregulated lipid metabolism contributes to glioma progression, and analysing lipid profiles in plasma and tissue may enhance diagnostic and prognostic accuracy. This study investigated lipid dysregulation to identify key lipid signatures that distinguish glioma from other brain diseases and examined the associations between lipid biomarkers in glioma tissue and plasma. Biospecimens from 11 controls and 72 glioma patients of varying grades underwent lipidomic profiling using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified differentially abundant lipids, and correlation analysis evaluated the associations between tissue and plasma biomarkers. Lipidomic analysis revealed distinct lipid profiles in the tissues and plasma of glioma patients compared to those of controls. Prominent lipid metabolites in glioma tissues included LPC 21:3 (AUC = 0.925), DG 43:11 (AUC = 0.906), and PC 33:1 (AUC = 0.892), which served as effective biomarkers. Conversely, in plasma, lipid metabolites such as phosphatidylethanolamine (PE 21:3, AUC = 0.862), ceramide-1-phosphate (CerP 26:1, AUC = 0.861), and sphingomyelin (SM 24:3, AUC = 0.858) were identified as the most promising lipid biomarkers. Significant positive and negative correlations were observed between the tissue and plasma lipid biomarkers of glioma patients. Lipidomic profiling revealed aberrant lipid classes and pathways in glioma tissues and plasma, enhancing understanding of glioma heterogeneity and potential clinical applications.
