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

Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive brain tumors. Despite the standard therapy, the survival from diagnosis remains dramatically low, especially due to tumor recurrence. Glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) have been implicated in this tumor relapse, e.g., based on their capacity to escape the tumor and to migrate through the brain via CXCR4-dependent mechanisms. CXCR4 regulates biological features associated with tumor progression, including self-renewal, migration, and radio resistance. Importantly, its expression correlates with severity and poor prognosis of several cancers including GBM. The CXCR4/CXCL12 pathway therefore appears as an interesting potential therapeutic target. We have generated an oncolytic herpes simplex virus (oHSV) expressing HA-P2G, a mutated form of CXCL12 previously described as a CXCR4 competitive inhibitor. We demonstrate that,
