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

Cancer patients are prone to venous thromboembolism (VTE), and this hypercoagulability favors tumor growth and metastasis. After a brief review of the clinical aspects of VTE and cancer, we discuss the pathogenesis of hypercoagulability with an emphasis on the role of tissue factor (TF). The discovery that, in addition to tumor cells, TF is expressed by tumor-associated macrophages and tumor-associated endothelial cells led to studies of the role of TF in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis. In human lung cancer, melanoma, and breast cancer, TF and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) co-localize in tumor cells; a close correlation exists between TF and VEGF synthesis (P = .001) in tumor cell lines and with angiogenesis in vivo in a severe, combined immunodeficient mouse model. Transfection of a TF/VEGF low-producing human tumor cell line with full length TF complementary DNA (cDNA) results in conversion to a high producer of TF and VEGF; transfection of a deletion-mutant TF cDNA lacking cytoplasmic serine residues restores full TF procoagulant activity but not VEGF synthesis to the cells. These results suggest that the cytoplasmic tail of TF is necessary for tumor cell VEGF synthesis. Targeting of TF in tumors and tumor-associated blood vessels is discussed as a strategy for drug delivery and rational anti-cancer and anti-angiogenesis drug design.
