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

The prognosis of patients with glioma is largely related to both the tumor-infiltrating immune cells and the expression of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that are able to regulate various pro-inflammatory and oncogenic mediators. However, immune-associated RBPs in glioma remain unexplored. In this study, we captured patient data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and divided them into two immune subtype groups according to the difference in infiltration of immune cells. After differential expression and co-expression analysis, we identified 216 RBPs defined as immune-associated RBPs. After narrowing down processes, eight RBPs were selected out to construct a risk signature that proven to be a novel and independent prognostic factor. The patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups on the basis of risk score. Higher risk scores meant worse overall survival and higher expression of human leukocyte antigen and immune checkpoints such as PD1 and CTLA4. In addition, analyses of pathway enrichment, somatic mutation, copy number variations and immuno-/chemotherapeutic response prediction were performed in high- and low-risk groups and compared with each other. For the first time, we demonstrated a novel signature composed of eight immune-associated RBPs that was valuable in predicting the survival of glioma patients and directing immunotherapy and chemotherapy.
