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 adult brain tumor. While GBM typically occurs sporadically, familial GBM can be associated with certain hereditary disorders and isolated familial GBMs in the absence of syndrome are rare. Relevant hereditary factors have remained elusive in these cases. Understanding specific genetic abnormality may potentially lead to better treatment strategies in these patients. Here, we analyzed GBM tissue from our patient and 2 afflicted family members, with next generation sequencing to better understand the genetic alterations associated with this disease development. DNA was extracted and sequenced and the data were then analyzed. Results revealed 2 common mutations in afflicted family members; PDGFRA and HRAS. In addition, both siblings showed a mutation of the SMARCB1 gene. The sister of our patient exhibited a homozygous mutation, while our patient had heterozygous mutation of this gene in the tumor tissue. This result suggests that mutation of SMARCB1, either alone or in the presence of PDGFRA and HRAS mutations, is associated with earlier onset GBM.
