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

Glioma stem cells (GSCs) in the hypoxic niches contribute to tumor initiation, progression, and recurrence in glioblastoma (GBM). Metabolic pathways are altered in GSCs under hypoxia, but the mechanism underlying the altered one-carbon metabolism in GSCs by hypoxia is largely unknown. Here, we report that hypoxia induces down-regulation of DHFR as well as up-regulation of MAT2A in GBM tumorsphere cells, and confers them the ability of cell proliferation that is independent of exogenous folate. Importantly, short-term inhibition of the methionine cycle or exposure to the MAT2A inhibitor is sufficient to cripple the tumor-initiating capability of GBM tumorsphere cells. Therefore, we present a novel perspective on how hypoxia alters the pattern of one-carbon metabolism in GBM tumorsphere cells and provide evidence that restriction of methionine intake or targeting MAT2A inhibits the tumorigenicity of GBM tumorsphere cells.
