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

The response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, which are based on tumor size alone, are the most frequently used and effective criteria by which to evaluate the tumor response to chemotherapy. However, the mechanism of tumor-targeted drugs is different from traditional cytotoxic drugs. Tumor-targeted drugs are designed to interfere with specific aberrant biological pathways involved in tumorigenesis. For this reason, the response evaluation in solid tumors is not adequate for the evaluation of targeted therapy. Molecular and functional imaging techniques such as dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion computed tomography, dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography can reflect tumor blood flow and cellular metabolic changes directly, and are being used more frequently for the evaluation of targeted therapies. This article gives an overview of some of the new computed tomography criteria and the commonly used methods of targeted therapy evaluation.
