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

purposePreclinical development of antisarcoma therapy is primarily based on the subcutaneous transplantation of sarcoma xenografts. Tumour cell survival remains a hurdle of current models, which has been attributed to the hypoxic conditions following transplantation. We hypothesised that sarcoma models with an intrinsic tissue-engineered vascular supply are easily reproducible. The aim of this study was to establish a novel vascularised xenograft model. MATERIALS AND

methodsPrimary human soft tissue sarcomas were transplanted into a silicon chamber and placed around the superficial epigastric vessels of nude mice. Sarcoma xenograft samples were assessed histomorphologically.

resultsAll sarcoma xenografts engrafted, leading to solid tumours. Histological, immunohistochemical staining and light/electron microscopy confirmed the xenografts as identical high-grade pleomorphic sarcomas (NOS) compared with the original patients' tumours.

conclusionThis novel sarcoma xenograft model with an intrinsic vascular supply could be of high value for studying human soft tissue sarcomas and their therapy.
