Glioblastoma Multiforme miRNA based Comprehensive Study to Validate Phytochemicals for Effective Treatment against Deadly Tumour through
Article in MicroRNA (Shariqah, United Arab Emirates), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundGlioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is a prevalent and deadly type of primary astrocytoma, constituting over 60% of adult brain tumors, and has a poor prognosis, with a high relapse rate within 7 months of diagnosis. Despite surgical, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy treatments, GBM remains challenging due to resistance. MicroRNA (miRNAs) control gene expression at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels by targeting their messenger RNA (mRNA), and also contribute to the development of various neoplasms, including GBM.
methodsThe present study focuses on exploring the miRNAs-based pathogenesis of GBM and evaluating most potential plant-based therapeutic agents with in silico analysis. Gene chips were retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, followed by the Robust- Rank- Aggereg algorithm to determine the Differentially Expressed miRNAs (DEMs). The predicted targets were intersected with the GBM-associated genes, and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of the overlapping genes was performed. At the same time, five phytochemicals were selected for the Connectivity map (CMap), and the most efficient ones were those that had undergone molecular docking analysis to obtain the potential therapeutic agents.
resultsThe hsa-miR-10b, hsa-miR-21, and hsa-miR-15b were obtained, and eight genes were found to be associated with glioma pathways; VSIG4, PROCR, PLAT, and ITGB2 were upregulated while, CAMK2B, PDE1A, GABRA1, and KCNJ6 were downregulated. The drugs Resveratrol and Quercetin were identified as the most prominent drugs.
conclusionThese miRNAs-based drugs can be used as a curative agent for the treatment of GBM. However, in vivo, experimental data, and clinical trials are necessary to provide an alternative to conventional GBM cancer chemotherapy.
