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 most common type of malignancy in the adult kidney is clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), for which antiangiogenic therapy with surgery is currently the standard treatment. Although overall survival of patients with metastatic ccRCC has been substantially extended by antiangiogenic therapy with agents such as sorafenib and sunitinib, patients almost certainly go on to develop resistance, or present at the time of treatment with primary resistance. This eventuality implies that our knowledge of the processes involved in tumour angiogenesis in ccRCC is superficial. Increasing evidence has shown that a solid tumour can, during invasion and expansion, 'hijack' pre-existing blood vessels and integrate them into the tumour vasculature. This approach to expanding the tumour vasculature is referred to as vessel co-option. In this Perspectives article, I argue that vessel co-option likely occurs in ccRCC, along with the complementary processes of vessel remodelling and extratumoural angiogenesis. Exploring the underlying molecular mechanisms of these complicated vasculature developments in ccRCC might provide new opportunities to enhance the efficacy of antiangiogenic therapy.
