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

Several cancers tend to metastasize to bone, leading to osteolytic or osteoblastic bone lesions. The respective phenotypes of bone destruction and bone formation vary in clinical features, including incidence, prognosis, skeletal-related events and bone biomarkers. In addition, different molecular mechanisms explain the difference in phenotype. For example, molecules involved in osteolytic bone metastases (represented with breast cancer) include parathyroid hormone-related protein, transforming growth factor-β, while in osteoblastic lesions (represented with prostate cancer), endothelin-1 and morphogenetic proteins, etc. play a more important role in bone formation. It is important for us to understand the differences of bone metastases between two phenotypes to help clinicians to understand the underlying mechanisms, behaviors and therapies in development and currently available for bone metastases.
