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

During angiogenesis, αv integrins are overexpressed on the endothelial cell surface to facilitate the growth and survival of newly forming vessels. Accordingly, blocking αv integrin function by disrupting ligand binding can produce an antiangiogenic effect. Although the integrin ectodomain regulates ligand binding specificity, the short cytoplasmic tail facilitates intracellular signaling pathways through the recruitment and activation of specific kinases and signaling intermediates. This in turn controls endothelial cell adhesion, morphology, migration, invasion, proliferation, and survival. These same integrin-mediated signaling pathways are exploited in cancer to promote the invasiveness and survival of tumor cells and to manipulate the host microenvironment to provide ample blood vessel and stromal resources to support tumor growth and metastatic spread. Because expression of αv integrins on distinct cell types contributes to cancer growth, αv integrin antagonists have the potential to disrupt multiple aspects of disease progression.
