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

backgroundAngiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from the endothelium of the existing vasculature, describes a crucial process in tumor growth, disease progression, and metastasis. Therefore, the upcoming strategy of inhibiting tumor angiogenesis has generated different treatment modalities, which have been transferred into clinical practice in recent years. Currently, this concept is applied to target the vasculature of different visceral tumors and intensive clinical research has just started. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis review summarizes the modifications of systemic treatment of visceral tumors by targeting the vasculature in the past years. Moreover, novel targets and treatment strategies will be discussed to evaluate future directions.

resultsLeading antiangiogenic drugs combined with systemic chemotherapy have been applied with increasing success during the last years. Therefore, the concept of combining vascular targeting agents with established chemotherapeutic regimens has been increasingly adopted into the therapies of different visceral tumors.

conclusionTargeting the vasculature of visceral tumors in combination with established standard tumor therapies includes major clinical potential for future therapy concepts.
