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

Improvement of soft tissue sarcoma patient outcome requires well-characterized animal models in which to evaluate novel therapeutic options. Xenograft sarcoma models are frequently used, but commonly with established cell lines rather than with primary human sarcoma cells. The objective of the present study was to establish a reproducible xenograft model of primary human soft tissue sarcoma in athymic nude mice. Primary soft tissue sarcoma cells from four resected human sarcomas were isolated, cultured until the third passage and injected subcutaneously into athymic nude mice. The sarcoma xenograft was further analyzed by histological and immunohistochemical staining. In two out of four sarcomas tumor growth could successfully be established leading to solid tumors of up to 540 mm(3) volume. Histological and immunohistochemical staining confirmed the mouse xenograft as identical sarcoma compared with the original patient's tissue. In the present study a reproducible xenograft model of primary human soft tissue sarcoma in athymic nude mice was established. This animal model is of great interest for the study of sarcomogenesis and therapy.
