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

Malignant tumors induce angiogenesis and modulation of microvasculature. Based on histologic and immunohistochemical analysis of human surgical material, we describe here the occurrence of glomeruloid structures in gastrointestinal carcinomas, and compare them with the microvasculature in inflammatory granulation tissue. The glomeruloid structures were composed of clusters of mutually fused capillaries with prominent swelling of endothelial cells and pericytes. They were thought to be specific for glioblastoma of the brain. The glomeruloid structures were observed juxtaposed to carcinoma nests in one-third of gastric carcinoma of intestinal type and colorectal carcinoma in the area of invasive growth beyond the muscularis mucosae. They were not observed in gastric carcinoma of diffuse type, intramucosal carcinoma, or inflammatory granulation tissue. The glomeruloid structures can be regarded as an extreme example of endothelial hyperplastic changes observed in cancer stroma. Our results suggested that glomeruloid structures can occur in carcinomas as vascular reaction, a mechanism different from that in inflammatory granulation tissues.
