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

objectivesDespite the close association with patient clinical outcomes, dysregulated kinases in gliomas are not commonly used as clinical indicators. We aimed to identify a kinase-related gene signature for glioma patients that improves clinical risk-stratification.

methodsLeast absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify kinase-related gene signature. The association between the risk model and patient survival, pathway activation, and immune suppression status was further explored. Additionally, cell proliferation and tumor formation assay were performed to evaluate the oncogenic roles of identified kinase gene.

resultsIn this study, we identified a 10-gene kinase signature in TCGA dataset that is significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) in glioma patients. A consistent prediction ability for survival was further demonstrated in the CGGA dataset. In addition, the signature was significantly linked to malignant molecular signatures, such as IDH wild type and non-codeletion of 1p19q. Moreover, the high-risk group exhibited a wide array of oncogenic biological pathways. Interestingly, the result showed that the kinase-related signature is tightly linked with immune suppression signatures, including immune infiltration of MDSCs and Tregs, and expression of immunosuppressive genes. Functionally, the oncogenic roles of WEE1 in gliomas were validated.

conclusionsThe findings present a novel kinase-related gene signature with potential value for survival prediction in gliomas.
