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

Recent studies in molecular and cellular biology have shown that tumor growth and metastasis are not determined by cancer cells alone but also by a variety of stromal cells. The stroma constitutes a large part of most solid tumors, and cancer-stromal cell interaction contributes functionally to tumor growth and metastasis. Angiogenesis is the result of an imbalance between positive and negative angiogenic factors released by tumor and host cells into the microenvironment of the neoplastic tissue. In gastric cancer, tumor cells and stromal cells produce various angiogenic factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin-8, and platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor. The microenvironment in the gastric mucosa may also influence the angiogenic phenotype of gastric cancer. Helicobacter pylori infection increases expression of several angiogenic factors by tumor cells. Activated fibroblasts and macrophages in tumor stroma also play an important role in angiogenesis and tumor progression. We review the current understanding of cancer-stromal cell interaction as it pertains to tumor angiogenesis in gastric cancer.
