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

backgroundOsteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma are the most common chemosensitive sarcomas of the bone.

aimDevelopment in chemotherapeutic concepts as well as current and future treatment strategies in osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma are presented.

methodsA PubMed search for "Osteosarcoma" and "Ewing sarcoma" was performed, and pertinent results were summarized.

resultsIn both osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma, outcomes achieved with multimodal treatment concepts combining conventional chemotherapy and local treatment have reached a plateau of about 70% for 5-year survival rates. DISCUSSION: Improved insights into the molecular biology and genetics of the diseases as well as insights into the interactions between sarcoma cells and the micro-environment and the immune system are necessary to identify novel therapeutic targets in bone sarcomas. Because of the rarity of the diseases, multinational cooperation is essential to evaluate novel therapies in prospective randomized trials.
