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

The angiopoietins are recently described growth factors for vascular endothelium. The Tie1 and Tie2 receptors are expressed by endothelium. Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-associated Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and cutaneous angiosarcoma are malignancies of endothelial origin. KS involves primarily the skin and mucosal surfaces and is common in AIDS patients. In an effort to determine whether the angiopoietins and Tie receptors play a role in the pathobiology of angiosarcoma and KS, we studied the expression of angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, angiopoietin-4, Tie1, and Tie2 mRNAs in biopsies of KS from 12 AIDS patients, in biopsies of cutaneous angiosarcoma from two patients, and in control biopsies of normal skin from three volunteers by in situ hybridization. Strong expression of angiopoietin-2, Tie1, and Tie2 mRNAs was detected in the tumor cells of KS and cutaneous angiosarcomas, in contrast to the focal low-level expression in normal skin biopsies. Focal low-level expression of angiopoietin-1 was seen in KS, cutaneous angiosarcomas, and in normal skin. Focal low-level expression of angiopoietin-4 was identified in a minority of KS lesions. These findings suggest that the angiopoietins and Tie receptors may play an important role in the pathobiology of KS and cutaneous angiosarcoma and identify additional potential targets for therapeutic intervention in these vascular malignancies.
