Proteomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals TKT as a potential biomarker for medulloblastoma.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays an important role in brain tumors, including medulloblastoma (MBL). Recent advancements in mass spectrometry systems and 'Omics' data analysis methods enable unbiased, high proteome depth research. We conducted proteomic profiling of the total CSF in MBL patients with the purpose of finding a potential diagnostic biomarker for MBL. We quantified 1112 proteins per CSF sample. Feature selection identified four elevated soluble proteins (SPTBN1, HSP90AA1, TKT, and NME1-NME2) in MBL CSF. Validation with ELISA confirmed that TKT was significantly elevated in MBL. Additionally, TKT-positive extracellular vesicles were significantly enriched in MBL CSF and correlated with the burden of leptomeningeal seeding. Our results provide insights into the proteomics data of the total CSF of MBL patients. Furthermore, we identified the significance of TKT within the total CSF and its presence within circulating EVs in the CSF. We suggest that TKT may serve as a biomarker for MBL.
