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

purposeTumor microenvironments show remarkable tumor pO(2) heterogeneity, as seen in prior EPR pO(2) images (EPROI). pO(2) correlation with hypoxia response proteins is frustrated by large rapid pO(2) changes with position. PROCEDURES: To overcome this limitation, biopsies stereotactically located in the EPROI were used to explore the relationship between vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF) concentrations in living mouse tumors and the local EPROI pO(2).

resultsQuantitative ELISA VEGF concentrations correlated (p = 0.0068 to 0.019) with mean pO(2), median pO(2), and the fraction of voxels in the biopsy volume with pO(2) less than 3, 6, and 10 Torr.

conclusionsThis validates EPROI hypoxic fractions at the molecular level and provides a new paradigm for the assessment of the relationship, in vivo, between hypoxia and hypoxia response proteins. When translated to human subjects, this will enhance understanding of human tumor pathophysiology and cancer response to therapy.
