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

Previous studies have demonstrated that the expression of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is restricted to endothelium from tumor-associated neovasculature. But the expression of PSMA in osteosarcoma and its clinical significance are unknown. Using immunohistochemical analysis and quantum dot probes, we found that 46.7% (21/45) of the osteosarcoma showed positive staining for PSMA while no PSMA staining in osteofibrous dysplasia. The expression and localization of PSMA was confirmed by CD34 staining. More importantly, the expression of PSMA is correlated with tumor size, pulmonary metastasis and worse survival (survival rate 63.2% in the PSMA-negative group versus 36.6% in the PSMA-positive group). Thus, PSMA could be used as an independent prognostic marker for the osteosarcoma patients, and PSMA staining in tumor-associated neovasculature may be a potential target for antineovasculature-based therapy in osteosarcoma.
