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

backgroundPediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGGs), particularly incompletely resected supratentorial tumours, can undergo progression after surgery. However to date, there are no predictive biomarkers for progression. Here, we aimed to identify pLGG-specific microRNA signatures and evaluate their value as a prognostic tool.

methodsWe identified and validated supratentorial incompletey resected pLGG-specific microRNAs in independent cohorts from four European Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Centres.

resultsThese microRNAs demonstrated high accuracy in differentiating patients with or without progression. Specifically, incompletely resected supratentorial pLGGs with disease progression showed significantly higher miR-1248 combined with lower miR-376a-3p and miR-888-5p levels than tumours without progression. A significant (p < 0.001) prognostic performance for miR-1248 was reported with an area under the curve (AUC) of 1.00. We also highlighted a critical oncogenic role for miR-1248 in gliomas tumours. Indeed, high miR-1248 levels maintain low its validated target genes (CDKN1A (p21)/FRK/SPOP/VHL/MTAP) and consequently sustain the activation of oncogenic pathways.

conclusionsAltogether, we provide a novel molecular biomarker able to successfully identify pLGG patients associated with disease progression that could support the clinicians in the decision-making strategy, advancing personalized medicine.
