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: Mitophagy receptor-related genes (MRRGs) orchestrate mitochondrial quality control and may shape glioma progression and immune tolerance, yet their integrated prognostic and immunobiological significance remains unclear. Methods: We combined WGCNA, single-cell AUCell scoring, and LASSO/Cox modeling across public glioma cohorts to derive and externally validate a 17-gene MRRG risk signature. Multi-omics comparisons (transcriptome, pathway enrichment, mutation, and GWAS association), immune infiltration, and therapy response prediction were performed. Core driver(s) were interrogated by Results: The MRRG signature robustly stratified overall survival across independent datasets and remained an independent prognostic factor after multivariable adjustment. High-risk tumors exhibited activation of P53 signaling and MAPK signaling pathway, coupled with immunosuppressive remodeling characterized by increased M2-like macrophage infiltration and T cell dysfunction. Integrative analyses highlighted IFNAR2 as a central node; its silencing impaired glioma cell proliferation, invasion, and metastatic potential, while Conclusion: We present and validate a 17-MRRG prognostic model that links mitophagy receptors to glioma immunosuppression and clinical outcome, and identify IFNAR2 as a functional driver. These findings provide a rationale for incorporating MRRG profiling into prognostic assessment and therapeutic decision-making in glioma.
